Proving where your cryptocurrency came from - for visa applications, bank compliance, property purchases, and legal proceedings across New Zealand. We produce independent, professionally signed source of funds reports for use with Immigration New Zealand, NZ banks, lawyers, and courts.
When a bank, immigration adviser, lawyer, or exchange asks where your crypto came from, we reconstruct transaction histories, identify legitimate sources, and produce clear forensic documentation - confidential, thorough, and formatted for non-technical reviewers.

Services
From immigration visa applications and bank AML requests through to property purchases, business compliance, legal proceedings, and exchange verification - independent source of funds reports for real-world New Zealand requirements.
Skilled Migrant, Investor, Entrepreneur, and partner visa applicants with cryptocurrency wealth must prove funds are legitimate. We produce source of funds letters and full forensic reports meeting Immigration New Zealand requirements. We work directly with immigration lawyers and advisers.
NZ banks are increasingly asking customers to explain large cryptocurrency deposits or transfers. Under the AML/CFT Act 2009, banks must verify the origin of funds. We produce clear, documented reports explaining transaction history that compliance teams can accept and file.
Buying property with cryptocurrency-derived funds triggers source of funds checks from lawyers and conveyancers. We document the full history of how funds were acquired and converted, giving your solicitor what they need to complete the transaction.
Selling a property and receiving payment in cryptocurrency, or purchasing property using crypto-derived funds, triggers source of funds obligations from both sides of the transaction. Lawyers, conveyancers, and banks involved must verify the origin of the cryptocurrency under the AML/CFT Act. We document the full history of the crypto involved - whether it's incoming payment for a sale or outgoing funds for a purchase - giving all parties what they need to complete the transaction without delays at settlement.
Businesses receiving cryptocurrency payments, investors moving funds into New Zealand, and anyone dealing with large digital asset positions may need to demonstrate legitimate origins for regulatory or contractual purposes.
Source of funds reports for relationship property disputes, estate matters, fraud cases, and commercial litigation where the origin of cryptocurrency is contested or must be independently verified.
Some exchanges require source of funds documentation before processing large withdrawals or account upgrades. We produce reports formatted to meet exchange compliance requirements.
Process
Step 1
Contact us with a brief outline of your situation - whether that is a bank request, visa application, property purchase, or legal matter. We respond within 24 hours. Everything is strictly confidential from the first conversation.
Step 2
We review what documentation is required, your wallet addresses, acquisition history, and whether a source of funds letter or full forensic report is appropriate. We confirm scope, timeline, and fees. No obligation.
Step 3
We agree scope, timeline, and fees. A full NDA is signed before any work begins. All engagements are strictly confidential.
Step 4
We reconstruct transaction histories, identify acquisition sources, and document findings using industry-grade forensic tools and our proprietary methodology.
Step 5
We deliver your professionally signed source of funds report - formatted for Immigration New Zealand, your bank, solicitor, or exchange - and remain available for follow-up questions.
New Zealand context
Immigration New Zealand and cryptocurrency wealth
Immigration New Zealand requires visa applicants to meet character and financial requirements, including demonstrating that funds come from a legitimate source. Cryptocurrency can support visa applications - including the Active Investor Plus Visa (minimum NZD $5 million, Growth or Balanced categories) - provided holdings can be shown to have been lawfully acquired. We produce reports and declarations specifically formatted for immigration submissions.
The AML/CFT Act 2009 and NZ reporting entities
Under the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering Financing of Terrorism Act 2009, banks, lawyers, conveyancers, accountants, and real estate agents are all reporting entities with legal obligations to verify source of funds. NZ banks are increasingly asking customers to explain large cryptocurrency deposits or transfers as part of these obligations.
Property transactions and lawyer obligations
Under Phase 2 of the AML/CFT Act, lawyers and conveyancers must verify the source of funds used in property transactions. If you are purchasing property with funds converted from cryptocurrency, your solicitor will likely require source of funds documentation before the transaction can proceed.
Source of funds letter vs full forensic report
A source of funds letter provides a concise, professionally signed summary suitable for straightforward matters - a single wallet, clear exchange purchase history, or a defined compliance request. A full forensic report covers complex holdings across multiple wallets, exchanges, and years of transaction history, with detailed on-chain evidence and technical appendices. We confirm which is appropriate during the scoping call.
Legitimate sources we can document
We can document a wide range of lawful acquisition paths, including original purchases with fiat, trading gains, mining income, staking rewards, employment income paid in crypto, gifts, inheritance, and business revenue. The more information you can provide about your history, the faster and more thorough the report.
