Document Request Checklist Template

Turn “please send your documents” into a request a client can finish. This document collection checklist helps your team agree on the exact file, who provides it and what counts as a usable submission.

No signup required. Edit the CSV in Excel, Google Sheets or another spreadsheet.

Who this checklist is for

Teams collecting a defined packet of documents from clients, applicants or suppliers.

Before you send it

Replace each example with a named document. “Bank statements for January to March, all pages” is clearer than “financial documents”. Decide which items are essential before you mark them required.

What to include in the request

These are starting points to adapt, not universal requirements. The CSV contains the same items and instructions as this preview.

Use this template in Intaky

Use each document row to configure a file request, with the period and acceptance instructions in its description. Allow multiple files where a statement pack needs them. Reviewer checks belong in your review process, not in questions the client must answer.

After setup, share your application link. Applicants access their own checklist through an email link with no password to create. Your team reviews the submitted answers and files and requests corrections on the items that need them.

Turn the checklist into a client request.

Create your workspace, adapt the questions and file requests, and collect the answers in one place.
