Best answer
In the US this would be: Physical address. LLC articles of incorporation, drivers license, posssibly your passport, anything to prove you are actually buying/shipping product. They are assessing their risk and if you would be a liability for running more ads. Whether we like it or not the ad inventory will sell, FB does not need a single account.

@safe0 I’m not sure what prompted you to need them but for us we ran election ads. We haven’t had issues with spend caps. Our big accounts use invoicing.

What if I am only sole trader and don't have LLC?

@safe0 might be time to be legit then. No business bank account either?

@englishman6819 the point is I was suffering for not setting up payment provider because of living in non-supported country. At last I managed to activate Stripe and ready to go. I haven't run any ads yet and just wanted to learn things if I face after start.
