To set up an account for your organization, such as a business, trust or estate, you need to create an individual account first. Once you have an individual account, reach out to our team for assistance with the next steps.

We will provide you with a due diligence form for your specific entity type, and ask for relevant documentation to set up the business account.

Review the list of documents below and have them at hand when you contact our team and are ready to get started.


  • Proof of the organization's incorporation 
  • Identification of directors, shareholders and any ultimate beneficial owner(s) 
  • Proof of the registered address and business address 
  • Proof of authority and government-issued photo identification for all persons authorized to be added to the account 


Depending on the type of entity in question, Sotheby’s may be required to obtain additional documentation to fulfill our regulatory obligations.
