## Documents to collect

The physical documents you'll collect from your customer, with the evidence area each one proves. One document can prove multiple areas — for example, Brazil's Cartão CNPJ covers both tax and business-registration proof, so it appears once with both areas listed.

### Collection notes

* **Address:** Lease is accepted without a date constraint; utility bill or bank statement must be dated within 90 days.
* **Good Standing:** Matrícula de Comercio requires annual renewal; an expired matrícula means the company is not in good standing. No separate Certificate of Good Standing is issued.

## Person roles

When you submit a person on the application body, set their `role` to one of Conduit's canonical `BusinessPersonRole` values. Use this table to map a local corporate-governance title onto the right canonical role.
