# Additional requirements by corridors

> Additional documents and fields needed for Collection Accounts, on top of Tazapay's full KYB

Some countries need more than Tazapay's standard KYB pack. This page lists the **additional** fields and documents to provide for each country and account type, so your customer's Collection Account can be issued without delays.

<Info>
  Everything on this page is **in addition to** the [Tazapay full KYB requirements](#step-1-tazapay-full-kyb-requirements). Provide both together.
