Ask what evidence is needed and check the saved file before sharing. - [Watermark tenancy ID](https://dokus.app/en-nz/watermark-passport-driver-licence/): Label the ID copy for your property manager, rental purpose and date, if a marked copy is accepted. - [Smaller rental files](https://dokus.app/en-nz/compress-passport-driver-licence-pdf/): Make a licence, passport, payslip or bank-statement scan smaller for the property manager’s attachment limit. - [Tenancy ID PDF](https://dokus.app/en-nz/passport-driver-licence-to-pdf/): Put both driver licence sides on one A4 PDF, or prepare a passport identity page for a property manager. - [Redact bank statements](https://dokus.app/en-nz/redact-passport-driver-licence/): Hide unrelated transactions on a bank statement while leaving the required rental income evidence readable. ## Prepare the rental attachment you were asked for | Rental task | Tool | Final check | |---|---|---| | Licence front and back on one A4 page, or a passport identity page | [Tenancy ID PDF](https://dokus.app/en-nz/passport-driver-licence-to-pdf/) | Correct document, required sides and readable fields | | Scan above the property manager's attachment ceiling | [Smaller rental files](https://dokus.app/en-nz/compress-passport-driver-licence-pdf/) | Final saved size and legible income or identity details | | Copy for one property manager and property | [Tenancy watermark](https://dokus.app/en-nz/watermark-passport-driver-licence/) | Specific agency, property reference and date | | Income evidence without unrelated spending | [Rental bank-statement redaction](https://dokus.app/en-nz/redact-passport-driver-licence/) | Required income entries visible; every page checked | ## Identity and income are different pieces of evidence The Privacy Commissioner's rental guidance discusses passport and driver licence copies for identity checks. Consumer Protection's renting checklist covers income evidence and describes covering statement transactions a landlord does not need. Prepare each requested attachment for its own purpose rather than sending your entire document folder. Ask about the agency's identity-verification and deletion process. There is no national 1 MB tenancy rule: use the recipient's actual attachment ceiling. A purpose label is optional wording for the particular sharing context, not a legal identity check. ## Files, privacy and originals Open JPG, PNG, supported HEIC or PDF up to 25 MB. Only the first ten PDF pages are used; prepare the required page range before opening a longer file. HEIC availability depends on your browser. Processing stays on your device, with no document upload or account, and camera metadata is removed from the copy. The exported PDF contains images of its pages. Selectable text, digital signatures and interactive fields are not preserved. Keep the complete original separately and inspect the saved copy before sending. ## Guides for the original document - [Find your IRD number and prepare requested proof](https://dokus.app/en-nz/new-zealand-find-ird-number-proof/) - [Order a New Zealand birth certificate](https://dokus.app/en-nz/new-zealand-order-birth-certificate-copy/) ## Common questions ### Can I prepare a licence PDF and a redacted bank statement here? Yes. Convert the requested licence sides to PDF, then use the separate redaction tool on the statement. Save and inspect each attachment. ### Do I need to send every document in this table? No. The table lists possible tasks. Ask what evidence is needed for your rental application before preparing it. ### Can I process a digitally signed document? The tools redraw PDF pages as images, so signatures, selectable text and interactive fields do not survive. Keep the original when those features matter. Dokus keeps your NZ passport and driver licence on your iPhone, ready to share a prepared copy.
