Adds the ability to attest to the authorized company representative for Accounts v2 Public preview
What’s new
You can now record the attestation of an authorized company representative for a Stripe account by specifying these parameters for identity.attestations when using Accounts v2:
- representative_declaration.ip for the originating IP address of the attestation
- representative_declaration.date for the date of the attestation
- representative_declaration.user_agent for the user agent used for the attestation
Impact
A representative is the singular person designated by a business to manage their Stripe account. They are identified by setting the identity.individual.relationship.representative field.
In certain countries, Stripe is required to collect and verify that the representative’s information matches government records. When an account is created, the representative should be set to whoever is responsible for managing the account.
Accounts that require the attestation of a company’s representative will see identity.attestations.representatives_declaration.ip and identity.attestations.representatives_declaration.date in their requirements field.
