Google has begun requesting identity verification for some Google Ads accounts. If selected, we have 30 days to begin the identification process from when they request documentation before the account will be paused. We are taking a proactive approach and ensuring we have all documentation in advance.
Completing this process will allow us to continue advertising and will ensure your organisation’s name and location will show on ad disclosures. This is a way for Google to empower users and provide transparency about advertisers.
More information about ad disclosures can be found here.
