# What Counts as a Document Request

## When to use a Document Request

A Document Request is used when a verification cannot be completed automatically in real time and needs manual processing or external confirmation.

## Examples of Document Requests

- Qualifications
- Employment references
- Criminal checks
- Psychometric assessments
- Driver's licence verification
- Citizenship verification
- SARS tax clearance verification
- Vehicle reports
- Public servant checks
- Work or asylum permits

You submit the request in the platform, it is picked up for processing, and the verified report is returned once complete.

**Important:** Provide accurate details and a meaningful reference to reduce delays or rejection.
