| ### Accepted documents for German companies |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
The headings need to be updated because they're not consistent - here we say "for German companies" next it's "Self-employed and freelancers". Should it be German self-employed and freelancers"? They need to be clear and distinguishable.

The next section is an H2 heading, so it didn't need that detail. I've simplified all the H3 headings to avoid confusion.

What do we mean by "sourced by Swan"? We use "Whenever possible, Swan retrieves required documents independently." in the Docs. Is this the same?

Same thing, but here we highlight the documents we retrieve. I've changed the word from 'source' to 'retrieve'.

When we say user - we're talking about the User in the account onboarding process?

We're talking about the partner's end user.

In the table above, the first column is German, and the next is English. We should make this consistent across all the tables.

Yes, I played around with both options. I felt that different audiences may search for the doc type in English first, but it could go either way. So I've swapped them back to German -> English.

Is there a reason why UBO has been spelled out twice?

Is there a reason why Form is caplitalised? Certificate isn't so wondering what the logic is.

| ### Accepted documents for Self-Employed and Freelancers |

Self-employed and freelancers needs to be consistently capitalised. In the section above employed isn't capitalised in the heading - and self-employed and freelancers isn't capitalised in the intro text.

Yeah, it actually shouldn't be capitalized at all. I've updated it across the page.

Why does the heading not say self-employed individuals and freelancers?

Simplified these titles to just say "Accepted documents"

Same comment - German should come first if that's the standard we're doing.
