Based on my experience trading with regulated brokers, especially those under stringent oversight like Retela in Japan, the withdrawal process is typically thorough and compliance-driven. For my initial withdrawal with Retela, I was required to submit identity verification documents, which included an official photo ID—such as a driver’s license, passport, or a resident card—clearly displaying my name, address, and date of birth. Additionally, as is common with Japanese financial institutions, I needed to provide my “My Number” (the individual number issued for tax and social security purposes), usually found on the back of the My Number card or the official notification letter. Retela’s process also required that all information on these documents matched my account registration details precisely, reinforcing security and regulatory compliance. The reason these requirements are so strict is to combat money laundering, fraud, and to satisfy their obligations under Financial Services Agency (FSA) regulations. While I appreciate the added sense of security, I have to note from both my own experience and peer accounts that such documentation—and careful matching of details—is strictly enforced, so any discrepancy or missing document can result in delays. I also recommend preparing any withdrawal using the same bank account or financial channel initially used to deposit funds, as inconsistent details may slow down or complicate the process. In summary, clear photo identification and the official Japanese My Number documentation are essential for getting the withdrawal process started smoothly at Retela.
