How to Complete Identity Verification

Identity Verification or Know Your Customer (KYC) standards are designed to protect your account against fraud, corruption, money laundering, and terrorist financing.

All new users are required to complete [Verified] to access Binance products and service offerings, including cryptocurrency deposits, trades, and withdrawals.

Existing users who haven’t completed [Verified] verification will have their account permissions temporarily changed to “Withdraw Only,” with services limited to fund withdrawal, order cancelation, position close, and redemption.

Based on your region or selected payment channels, you may need to increase your identity verification level to improve your account security. For more details, please refer to Why Do I Need to Complete Identity Verification.

In rare cases, if your selfie doesn’t match the ID documents you’ve provided, you will need to provide supplementary documents and wait for manual verification. Please note that manual verification might take up to several days. Binance adopts a comprehensive identity verification service to secure all users' funds, so please ensure that the materials you provide meet the requirements when you fill in the information.

Binance reviews its products and services on an ongoing basis to determine changes and improvements. Please refer to the [Personal Identification] page for the most updated withdrawal limits.
