What the WorldFirst application service includes

- Company and activity file review
- WorldFirst application preparation and submission help
- Follow-up on additional document requests within scope
Identity and address
Director identity and residential-address proof
WorldFirst may request more evidence based on residence, activity and KYC.
WorldFirst decision
Eligibility, currencies and local details
WorldFirst decides independently; application support does not guarantee an account.
Documents commonly requested
- Certificate of Incorporation and company number (CRN)
- Valid passport
- Proof of residential address

A complete file improves review readiness but does not guarantee approval. WorldFirst may request more evidence or decline an application. Stripe is a separate provider with its own decision.

Do I need a bank account before the company is formed?
No. Formation happens without an account. After the certificate, Founder includes help preparing and submitting a WorldFirst application. Starter does not include this support.
I am in Egypt or the Gulf — what do I provide after the certificate?
You normally provide valid identity, residential-address proof, company documents and a genuine activity description. WorldFirst may request more information and independently decides eligibility and approval.
Is a WorldFirst account guaranteed?
No. Eteform helps prepare and submit the application from Founder, but WorldFirst independently reviews KYC, activity and risk and decides the outcome.
