Quickest and Easiest Way to Verify Identity in Google Ads 2023

Is Google asking you to verify your identity in the Google Ads Dashboard?

Don’t know how to do it and the complete process?

Getting warning messages by Google saying your Ad account will be paused if you do not complete the verification?

Worry no more! In this blog, we will be talking about the complete process of verifying your identity quickly and easily.

Not having a few documents ready or knowing the process can delay this simple process, but reading the process in this blog will make it effortless for you.

Why do it in the first place?

Wondering if you should even care about completing the verification process?

The verification process is mandatory, and if you do not share all the requested documents, your Ads will be paused by Google. You get 30 days to complete the formalities, so there is no way around it.

The sooner you do it, the better!

What are the documents you need to verify your identity?

After operating your Google Ads account for some time, Google will ask you for this verification and you need some documents for the same.

Here is a list of the documents that you should keep handy before you start with the process:

• Passport
• Driving License
• Voter ID Card
• PAN Card

After you have all these documents handy, you can start the process on your account. However, make sure to double check each upload and formality because you would never want to delay the process of verification.

Important Note: The verification process must be completed by the Account Admin itself. No representative is allowed to do the formalities of the verification process.

What happens after you complete the verification formalities?

After you complete the process and your details have been accepted, Google will use this information to display it on your Ads. After the changes were done for Google Ads, users will now have the option to view the name of the Advertiser and his/her location.

This is a mandatory process and needs to be completed in the time frame given by Google (We advise you to do it ASAP).

Why has Google brought this change and what does this mean for the Advertising world?

I personally feel that it is a remarkable step by Google. Like every other field of business, there are issues with Google Ads and one of them has been people running Ads (Even illegal or misleading ones) that harmed the users in some way or the other.

You, as a user of Google, will now get to hover over Google to access the details of the advertiser. You can even choose to stop Ads from a particular advertiser.

First of all, it will bring a lot of transparency and discourage countless fraudsters from running scams using Google Ads. It will also improve the experience of every Google user.

The information you share with Google will be used to help users on Google view your name and location.

Google has also made sure to make the process user-friendly for advertisers. The person/agency managing Ads for a particular business does not have to disclose their names and only the Admin (Business owner) has to share his/her details.
