These are almost impossible to get in many countries. I tried once here in Thailand years ago. No one had a clue, even lawyers and the local government was even more clueless. I was told to contact the Minstry of Foreign Affairs by the bank that wanted one of these. No one there had any clue and wouldn't lift a finger to find out either. Good luck if you're not in a developed signatory nation with this. It's just another nail in the soon to be coffin of Bitcoin.

How much money can you withdraw before you need to go thru this hassle?

Due to a increased amount of forged documents being received by our AML department, we will be adding extra provisions to our AML requirements starting immediately(*).
Going forward:

  • Your notarization must include the wording “Notarization for the purpose of verifying on MtGox.com”
  • Notarization alone will not suffice; we need an Apostille. Notaries can do this in most countries (please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apostille_convention)

Please be advised that documents received without the above may not be accepted as valid account approval documentation.

Thank you for your cooperation.

The Mt.Gox Team

(*) : In practice we're going to give 1-2 days leeway (based on the date of notarization).


AML = anti money laundering.
