UK Expat applicants

  • Certified proof of address (Utility bill, bank statement, credit card statement, driving licence)
  • Copy of any ID card for the applicant's country of residence if one is issued, and a resident's permit / Visa
  • We will also contact the applicant's employer or accountant to confirm the residential address held for them. We will require the employer / accountant email address so we can request this

Other Expat applicants

All applicants

  • ID documents if the electronic check we carry out on the applicant fails
  • Applicants are required to have an existing UK mortgage. We carry out an electronic credit check on all applicants which may show the performance of these. If this fails to show their existing mortgage(s), 12 months proof of conduct is required. To speed up our underwriting, you can provide these on submission.

Remortgage applicants

  • A copy of the existing / proposed tenancy agreement
  • Evidence of rent being paid in and mortgage being paid out (bank statements may already cover this).

Purchase applicants

  • Evidence of deposit in a UK account held by the applicant(s)
