How tmVerify handles AML checks

Identity, confirmed biometrically

Your client verifies themselves from their phone, matching a live image to their document, so you know the person is real and present.

Source of funds

Confirm where the money behind the purchase has come from, with the supporting evidence held against the file.

PEP and sanctions screening

Check your client against politically exposed persons and sanctions lists, so any heightened risk is seen and recorded before you act.

Digital and custom forms

Gather client information through digital Law Society TA forms, with custom forms where your firm needs them, completed online and held against the case. Read more about tmForms.

One onboarding workflow

How it works

1. Send your client a request. They complete their checks from any device, with no app to download and no appointment to book.

2. tmVerify runs the identity and source-of-funds checks and returns a clear result.

3. You review the outcome, and the full record stays attached to the matter for your file and any future audit.

Less time gathering paperwork. More certainty before you take a client on.

Built for regulatory confidence

HM Land Registry standard

Identity verification meets HM Land Registry’s Digital ID Standard, so a check done at onboarding carries through to registration.

SRA supervision

Checks meet the Solicitors Regulation Authority framework that supervises your firm.

A time-stamped record

Every check leaves a clear, time-stamped record, so you can show your working under the Money Laundering Regulations.

Why this matters now

AML sits at the centre of a conveyancer’s duty of care, and the standard expected of firms keeps rising. Onboarding is the first thing a new client experiences, and the first place a transaction can stall. tmVerify lets you confirm identity and funds quickly, give clients a check they can complete in minutes from home, and keep a defensible record without adding admin to your team’s day.

Under the Money Laundering Regulations, conveyancing firms must identify and verify their client, understand the source of funds, and apply ongoing due diligence appropriate to the risk. Firms are supervised against these duties by the Solicitors Regulation Authority.

Identity and source of funds are separate checks that together make up client due diligence. tmVerify covers both in the same onboarding workflow.

A client can usually complete their identity and funds checks in one short session from their own device, which removes the back and forth of collecting and copying documents.
