I received a notification last week stating ‘The documents you uploaded were not valid. To continue using Shopify Payments, resubmit them in order to verify your business.’ I would have uploaded ID documents over a year and a half ago with no issue.

I am facing the same problem. I have been using Shopify as a new customer and now have payments sitting waiting to be paid and it is now saying to submit new ID. I have done this several times and now it is saying the address doesn’t match. However it actually does so I don’t know why it is saying t…

Dear Ava, I am facing the same problem! I have created a new Shopify account as a new customer and I have issues with payments setting is still on hold and they are asking me to submit the ID and proof of address. I have done all this several times, and always I get the message ‘the address doesn’t…

Hey @Khalid-C , I’m sorry to hear you’re having some issues uploading your ID. I can see you’ve spoken to my colleague Hank on this thread on the same topic! Your ID is now with our Accounts team so they can verify it, they will be back in touch as soon as they have more information for you. You ca…

Hello Eva, Thanks for your feedback! I am waiting for the response from your team, yes indeed I want to change the address that was initially filled in, I want to put the same address as the documents sent. Thanks again for your intervention! Cheers,
