Once you start using your Hnry Bank Account, you'll need to provide some form of Proof of ID, so that we can verify your identity.
When prompted, you'll have the option of providing the following:
AU/NZ Passport
AU/NZ Driving Licence
Visa (AU only)
Photo Card (AU only)
If you are unable to provide one of these documents, you will need to email support@hnry.co, attaching a certified copy of one of the following alternative forms of identification:
non-AU/NZ Passport
18+ Card (NZ only)
Firearms or dealers' licence (NZ only)
For a document to be certified, it must be sighted, signed, dated and sent to support@hnry.co by ONE of the people in the list below with the following wording included "I certify that I have seen the original document and that the photograph is a true likeness and this copy is a complete and accurate copy of that original.":
A member of the police

Minister of religion

We prefer the certified passport to be sent to us directly by the certifier themselves. Ideally from an email address that enables us to identify that person (i.e their work email address).
Certification must have been carried out in the three months preceding the presentation of the copied documents to Hnry.
