Below, you can find the FAQ with more details on the Travel Rule. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our 24/7 Customer Support team.

Does the Travel Rule change how I trade on Binance?

No, the Travel Rule does not affect your trading activity on Binance. It only impacts transactions when you deposit or withdraw funds to or from another exchange or private wallet, requiring certain information to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.

How will the Travel Rule affect my transactions?

Your transaction may take a little more time, as you’ll need to complete the brief questionnaire. If all the required information is provided fully and correctly, your transaction should be processed smoothly.

What happens if the information doesn’t match or is missing?

If the information doesn’t match or is incomplete, your transaction may take longer to review. In such cases, we might contact you to provide additional details or clarify the information. If the required information isn’t provided correctly, the transaction could be delayed or rejected.

I am transferring from my own private wallet, what information do I need to provide?

When transferring from your own private wallet, the Travel Rule still applies. In this case, you need to provide your own information.

Why do I need to answer the questions every time before I deposit and withdraw?

Due to regulatory requirements and our commitment to transparency, we need to collect this information for every transaction. Each deposit or withdrawal may involve different people, platforms, or purposes, so the originator and beneficiary details can change. That’s why we ask these questions every time - to ensure accuracy and compliance. 

I’m transferring my token to someone I got to know on the internet. I don’t know the beneficiary’s full name. How can I answer the questionnaire? 

Users who don’t have the required information about the originator or beneficiary, need to contact the counterparty directly and ask for the correct details. To comply with regulations, all information must be accurate and complete before the transaction can be processed.

Are there any restrictions or prohibitions on certain countries or regions?

Yes, transfers to and from certain countries or regions are strictly prohibited due to international sanctions and high money laundering risks. This includes, but is not limited to, countries like Iran, North Korea, certain regions of Ukraine and other jurisdictions identified as high-risk. Please refer to the List of prohibited countries within the Terms of Use. Transactions involving these regions will be automatically blocked in accordance with our compliance policies and regulatory obligations.

How does the platform ensure the security of my information under the Travel Rule?

We prioritize your privacy and security by committing to protecting your data while ensuring compliance with the travel rule. We safeguard your information through secure data transfers, sharing only the minimum required information, and adhering to global data protection standards to ensure your privacy is always maintained.
