As a regulated company, XM operates in accordance with a number of compliance-related issues and procedures imposed by their main regulatory authority, Financial Services Authority (FSA).
These procedures involve the collection of adequate documentation from the clients with regards to KYC (Know Your Client), including the collection of a valid ID card and a recent (within 6 months) utility bill or bank account statement that confirms the address the client has registered with.
You don’t need to submit the documents again.

*If you wish to update your residential address, please send an email to XM from your registered email address and upload the POR (not older than 6 months) confirming that address in the Members Area.
