What happens if Google cannot verify my ID?
If Google is not able to verify your ID, you will be invited to resubmit documents. Please note that you can only resubmit documents a limited number of times.
Once an ID is verified, you will receive notice via email as well as in the AdManager Dashboard.
How do I verify my address?
Google will send an email letting you know that a PIN was sent to the address used to verify your ID. This may take several hours and is not immediate.
Once you receive your PIN via mail:
1. Sign in to Google Ad Manager.
2. Click Payments, and then Verification check.
3. Under “address verification,” enter your PIN and hit Submit.
Where will Google send my address verification mail?
Google will send the PIN verification to the address you provided when verifying your address. You can use either the address on your submitted ID, or a permanent address you provide to Google Ad Manager.
Does the address on my ID need to match the address on my Ad Manager payment profile?
No, the address on your ID does not need to match the address on your Ad Manager payment profile as you can also submit your permanent address.
How long do I have to verify my address?
Google gives you 45 days to verify your address via PIN verification.

Google allows you to request a replacement PIN, three weeks after the original PIN was issued.
