Account menu, then papers

From your account menu, open the section holding your paperwork and read the accepted formats and size limits before you pick any file.

Shoot the card flat

Photograph the full photo ID flat on a dark surface, all four corners inside the frame, with no finger shadow or flash glare across the text.

The second upload

Next comes proof of address with your name, address and a recent date visible, then the payment card image with the middle digits masked by you.

An inbox notice, then quiet

A submission notice lands in your inbox and the queue begins; most reviews finish sooner than the 68 hours we allow, so keep the email handy.

Paper trail

Each file answers one question for our team, so a complete set moves faster.

Why papers

When will Skol Casino ask to see my documents?

At Skol Casino the licence sets the timing, so no one is asked at random.

An unusual payment

By the time a single payment grows unusually large, the licence asks us to confirm who is sending it, so identity papers and a card image arrive together.

Your first payout request

Before the first payout leaves, the licence requires a confirmed player, so photo ID and proof of address are gathered while the request waits its turn.

Show your date of birth

Whenever a check is due, the minimum age of 18+ has to be shown, so a clear photo ID with your date of birth settles it in one upload.

Why the extra step?

As soon as you ask for a higher deposit limit, the licence wants the new level to match the player, so ID and address papers are reviewed before the change holds.

Show us where the money started

A licence held from the UK Gambling Commission, number 28854-6164-R-560199, asks licensed operators to check where money comes from. Skol Casino follows that duty as routine practice against money laundering. Nothing here treats you as a suspect; the same papers are asked of every player at that stage.

Depending on your situation, one or more of these may be requested.

Recent payslips from your employer
Bank statements for a recent period
A savings or investment statement
Evidence of a property sale
A pension or benefit letter

Turning a refusal into a clear upload

Sending the whole page. Screenshots cropped to a corner or trimmed by an editing tool no longer show the whole page, so the reviewer cannot trust the frame. Scan the original paper flat, uncropped Send the untouched file, not a screenshot

Reading every printed line. A photo taken at an angle or in poor light hides the printed details, which leaves the checker unable to read a single line. Rest the paper on a plain surface Use daylight and hold the phone steady

Still in date. Expired papers no longer prove a current identity, so the date printed on the card has to sit ahead of today. Check the expiry date before uploading Send a fresh copy once renewed

Mid-check questions

Questions that arrive while your papers are pending

Every reply follows the same patient route the Skol Casino team has used since 2009.

Can I send my identity papers with my phone camera?+

Yes. A phone photo is fine as long as the whole document sits inside the frame and the text stays sharp. Screenshots of a scan are not accepted, so send the original picture instead.

Which body licenses this casino and under what number?+

The UK Gambling Commission licenses Skol Casino under number 28854-6164-R-560199. That licence is what makes the identity check compulsory rather than optional.

Will I have to send the same papers again in a year?+

No, a clear set normally stays on your file. Fresh proof can be requested when a document runs out, when your details change, or when a source of funds review comes round again.

At what point does the identity check actually land?+

By the first withdrawal at the latest, the licence requires a completed check. Registration or your first deposit may bring the request forward, so keep your papers within reach from the start.

How long should I wait for the verification to clear?+

Allow up to 68 hours for a full reply. Most sets come back sooner, and a photo that is unclear adds a second round.

What happens if one of my documents gets turned down?+

A short note explains which paper failed and why. Send a fresh copy of that single item to [email protected] rather than the whole set again.

Are my identity papers safe once I upload them?+

Yes. Uploads travel over 256-bit TLS and are handled only by the team reviewing your file. Independently, QUINEL, SIQ and eCOGRA audit how the site handles them.
