More or less every single broker requests either this or even a drivers license, so yeah it's fairly regular. If you are using controlled brokers it should not be a problem.
Yeah I don'thave a problem with the drivers license sending I've done thatbefore. And its a controlled broker wanting my passport
Simply wondernig what you guys think about how safe this is to do? Sending a copy of a passport?
I have sent copies of my passport to some brokers. Like muzza said, provided that your broker is controlled it should not be a issue. Ask for their privacy policy in case you are not certain, but I believe you are being too paranoid.
They just want copies of pages along with your image on it. Perhaps not the entire record.
Check the law of the brokers. If it's a European permit, most likely it is safe. The thing is that the brokers make verifiion of the customers, that's a component of safety system. Additionally payment systems that are reliable do exactly the same thing.
Think about it like a bank... They possess the same understand your customer regulations. They do here in Australia. Just like you want to know who they are, that they need to understand who you are.
Regulated brokers are not going to steal your identity!
