What are the accepted valid IDs for GoTyme Bank account opening?


GoTyme Bank accepts only valid, government-issued photo IDs to ensure account security and regulatory compliance. These IDs allow GoTyme Bank to verify your identity in line with the BSP’s Know-Your-Customer (KYC) requirements.

Accepted IDs for Filipino citizens include:

  • Passport
  • UMID (Unified Multi-Purpose ID)
  • SSS ID
  • Postal ID
  • PRC ID
  • Driver’s License
  • Voter’s ID
  • PhilSys ID

*If you're registered with PhilSys, you also have additional ways to verify your identity during account opening. If eligible, you may select your preferred PhilSys verification method during the onboarding process. Click here for more information.

Make sure that your ID is not expired, the photo and text are clear, and the document matches the personal details you entered during sign-up. You may use any.

For foreign nationals, GoTyme Bank requires a Passport and a valid ACR-I Card (Alien Certificate of Registration Identity Card). Both documents are necessary to confirm your identity and legal residency in the Philippines.

In some cases, you may be asked to re-upload your ID or provide additional documents if your image is unclear or your ACR-I type needs verification.

Tip: Always use your primary IDs listed above. Secondary IDs (like company IDs or school IDs) are not accepted for account opening.
