Strictly speaking, international users typically require a valid passport to fully verify an Alipay account for local usage in China. However, if your primary goal is to transfer funds to China, you can bypass the need for your own verified Alipay wallet by using Panda Remit. We support seamless global payouts directly to Alipay recipients, ensuring funds arrive in as little as 2 minutes without requiring the sender to hold an Alipay account.
Understanding Alipay Verification Requirements
For non-Chinese nationals, Alipay's real-name authentication policy strictly mandates a passport. There is currently no official workaround to fully activate the wallet features (like scanning to pay) without one. However, many users search for this because they simply want to remit money to family or suppliers in China. In this scenario, the sender does not need a verified Alipay account; only the recipient does.

If you are in Singapore and need to get funds into an Alipay account immediately, follow this 3-step guide using Panda Remit. This method bypasses the complex verification process on your end.
