    Is this a thing for all European hosting companies?

    Absolutely not. At least not in Europe.

    Have you tried netcup as well?

      Netcup was the one I had most problems years ago about uploading identify check. Last year when I signed again they actually put a system in place that it’s simpler, you just show your face for some photos and show your identity card and it checks if it matches. So an external identity provider. Simpler than having to see how to upload copies by email with pgp (which they support and have documentation about).

        It’s so weird. Where from? I never had any such requirements with any provider, even when I, from Europe, bought something from abroad.

          I’m in europe. If you put a name that may seem a bit non standard they will fire that verification immediately. I think i tried hetzner before and same thing. On ovh was no problem for the little time I tried. Anyway they all always want full physical address and name and a bunch of personal details.
