An increasing number of businesses are moving their operations online, facilitating an increase in global collaboration led by video conferencing and online marketplaces. Such marketplaces like Upwork, Fiverr, and Trustiics allow businesses to connect with trusted professionals that would otherwise be out of reach. This shift creates unique international business opportunities for many small and medium sized businesses.
On that note, Trustiics is excited to announce the introduction of our newest service: Document certification and ID verification.
What are document certification and identity verification services?
Whether you are working with a new client in your home country or doing business in China, our document certification and identity verification services can help you certify that a document is a true copy of the original and verify the identity of an individual or business.
Beyond document certification and identity verification, our lawyers can also witness your client’s signing of legal or transactional documents. Witnessing the signing of legal documents sometimes happens at the same time as document certification and ID verification, or independently for the purposes of giving legal effectiveness of certain documents or providing better protection against potential disputes.
Like all other services available through Trustiics, getting started is as easy as signing up and placing an order. Here’s how it works:
01
Click on "submit a request" to begin your order.
Select "Document Certification and ID Verification" and fill out all fields.
Receive proposals from our top-rated lawyers.
Select your preferred lawyer, then submit details about your request.
Your lawyer will meet with your client and verify documents and/or identity.
Document certification and identity verification services can be useful in a number of situations. Here are some examples:
Example 1
In order to be confident that the copies they provided are the same as their original documents, you can submit a document certification request on Trustiics. After doing so, a registered lawyer will meet with the manufacturer, verify the original documents and certify that the materials provided are the true copies of the original license issued by the government.
Example 2
You are a Canadian real estate agent who is in the process of helping your Shanghai-based client sell their home in British Columbia. In order to finalize the transaction, the buyer's mortgage lender requires your client’s verification and signature of various documents.
Rather than asking your client to fly to Canada to verify and sign the documents, you could use Trustiics to find a Shanghai-based lawyer that can meet with your client. They can arrange a visit to witness signatures, confirm the identity of your client, and verify any necessary documents to finalize the transaction.

While it can be intimidating to do business in a foreign country that you are unfamiliar with or unable to visit, Trustiics is here to help. Rather than flying all the way to meet your client, you can place an order on our platform and your selected lawyer can visit the client for you to witness the signing of any necessary documents, verify the client’s ID document and/or certify a document as you need. In addition to our document translation services, this service can help eliminate roadblocks that could slow your business down.
