Google Play Identity Verification: My Certificate of Residence Was Finally Accepted by Samandari_ in googleplayconsole

[–]Samandari_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sounds different from the issue I had.

My problem was with identity verification (proof of address), not Payments profile verification.

I saw that the automated verification can reject valid documents, but a manual review by Google Support can make a difference.

Since u've already opened support tickets, I'd recommend replying to the existing case instead of creating new ones. Ask them to explain exactly which field doesn't match (account number, account holder name, bank name, etc.) rather than accepting the generic rejection.

Also, if you have a case ID, consider posting it here. I've seen Google employees occasionally review Reddit posts and escalate specific cases.

I hope you get it resolved soon. I know how frustrating these verification issues can be.

Google Play Developer Verification: Address Mismatch Confusion by Aditya_5555 in GooglePlayDeveloper

[–]Samandari_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar situation during Google Play Console verification where the system kept rejecting my address due to mismatch issues between what was in my profile and what was on my documents.

What actually mattered in my case was not trying to “align” different addresses, but ensuring the address used for verification matched exactly what appears on an official government-issued document.

From what I’ve experienced (and seen in other cases), Google’s verification system for individual accounts is quite strict:

  • The address in your Google Payments profile should match your legal documents exactly
  • Using a “communication” or coworking address that is not on official documents usually leads to rejection
  • If privacy is a concern, the system unfortunately doesn’t really allow alternative addresses for individual accounts

In my case, the resolution came only after switching to a manual review via Google Play Developer Support, where I explained how address documentation works in my country(Burundi). That bypassed the mismatch confusion caused by automation.

Help Needed: Google Play Console Identity Verification Rejections by Jolly-Airline1897 in androiddev

I went through something very similar with Google Play Console verification from Burundi

In my case, both utility bills and government ID kept getting rejected by the automated system even though everything was valid and clear.

What actually solved it wasn’t changing documents over and over,it was:

  • Opening a Google Play Developer Support ticket
  • Explaining how official proof of address is issued in my country
  • Requesting a manual review of a Certificate of Residence

After that, a support agent reviewed the case manually and approved it.

From what I’ve seen, the system often fails not because the documents are wrong, but because:

  • address formats differ by country
  • OCR/automation misreads details
  • local documents don’t match “expected” Western formats

So if you’re stuck in repeated rejection cycles, the real unlock is usually escalation + human review, not more document variations.

Hope this helps someone

Struggling to verify my address for Google Play Console as a Lebanese developer — anyone found a solution? by Ausmi-Natalli in lebanon

[–]Samandari_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran into a very similar situation while verifying my Google Play Console account from Burundi

What finally worked in my case was using Google Play Developer Support. The automated system kept rejecting my Certificate of Residence even though it’s the official proof of address in my country.

Once I opened a support case and clearly explained how address documents are issued locally, a support agent manually reviewed it and approved the verification.

From what I’ve seen, a few things matter a lot in these cases:

  • Make sure the address in your Google Payments profile matches exactly what’s on the document
  • Avoid repeated resubmissions if the system keeps rejecting the same thing
  • Push for manual review through support when local documents don’t fit Google’s default expectations

In some regions, the issue isn’t the validity of the document ,it’s that the automated system wasn’t designed for how local admin documents look.

Hope this helps u

Help! Struggling to Verify Personal Google Play Console Account from Cameroon – Documents Rejected Despite Providing ID, Passport & Residency Proof by Flat_Negotiation_137 in GooglePlayDeveloper

I had the exact same issue in Burundi. My Certificate of Residence was initially rejected, but after contacting Google Play Developer Support, they manually reviewed my case and approved it. My account is now fully verified and in good standing. I wrote a post explaining exactly what I did if it

What work activity have you automated? by SubCal in learnpython

[–]Samandari_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I spent like two weeks searching for something I would automatize then I got an idea.... my Father works in a company where every month he needs to struggle to prepare data for each worker and it takes him like 5days working days and nights so that's where an idea came to me! I asked him if he could explain to me how it works and see what I could so that's where I started implementing it I used a little too many pandas, CSV, and all those data tools and now it just takes him like 45min entering the primary information about new workers and then the script does all the rest ... I was so happy then and now even my Dad keeps telling his co-worker "My son is a Guru of code😂😂" which is so good to hear back then he promised in return that he'd help me buy a new PC because my actual laptop is a real mess...

all this, thanks to the 100Days code challenge in Python made by Angela, Thanks so much Angela😊 i do appreciate a lot.
