Hey, a few days shopify started to want KYC, how do we with stolen documents bypass this?

If you submit passport when adding SP they want to see both sides of id+face scan, andif you ad ID they want the other way arround..

are you still active on shopify dropshipping?
 
it’s getting trickier now. You need to setup everything right or they’ll flag it instantly. Most folks mess up on small details and get locked out.
 
it seems hard to do that

Yes, I completely agree. Two or three months ago, it was much easier to avoid getting flagged, but today it's complicated. Do you have any tips for avoiding getting flagged and bypassing KYC verification on Shopify Payments?

Yeah, Shopify has been tightening KYC recently, they now require clear ID verification for stores. The only safe way to pass KYC is using your real documents. Using fake or stolen IDs can get your store permanently banned and can have serious legal consequences.


If your goal is to sell or dropship safely, the best approach is to stick to legit documents and focus on optimizing your store, products, and marketing to grow without risking your accounts.
 
What's the benefit of using Shopify compared to self-hosted store?

Shopify’s KYC can’t be bypassed, but you can avoid roadblocks by using third-party payment gateways (PayPal, Payoneer, Stripe Atlas, Wise) or switching to platforms like WooCommerce or BigCommerce that have different verification steps.
 
I’ve been avoiding new Shopify accounts for EU lately, the KYC hoop is just too much stress
 
use stealth methods. run compliant merchant setups: company + PayPal / Stripe payment orchestration, and split-payment options to keep conversions high

If you want a safe path, use real, compliant options: register a proper business, verify with legitimate documents, or work with a licensed company-formation / compliance provider who can legally assist with setups and paperwork. This keeps your store and payments stable without risking bans or legal trouble.
