About this template

The AML Questionnaire gives financial advisors, agents and compliance teams a structured first-line screening step before onboarding. It collects identity and contact details, occupation and employer, source of funds, expected activity and politically-exposed-person status, then stores every answer as a timestamped, auditable response. Fields are fully editable so you can align the wording with your internal risk policy and local regulatory expectations, and reuse the same screening flow across every new client.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the AML Questionnaire template?
It is a free, ready-to-use compliance screening form. Advisers and insurers run it before onboarding to capture identity, occupation, source of funds and PEP status as an auditable record.
What does the AML questionnaire collect?
Identity, occupation, source-of-funds, expected-activity and PEP-status questions, plus free-text notes — the inputs compliance teams typically use for first-line client screening.
Is this questionnaire legally binding?
No. It is an intake and documentation aid. Final AML obligations depend on your jurisdiction and internal policy, so have your compliance officer review the fields before relying on it.
Can I adapt the questions to my firm's risk policy?
Yes. After copying the template you can edit, add or remove questions, change answer options and require acknowledgement checkboxes before a response is submitted.
Is this a substitute for full due diligence?
No. It standardises the first-line screening questions — identity, occupation and source of funds — so every case starts from the same documented baseline; formal due diligence still runs separately.
Can the answers be evidenced across a client base?
Yes. Each response is timestamped and exportable, so compliance can show the same screening questions were asked of every client.
