Hello, future crypto investor! If you’ve just created a Binance account and feel confused about the “Identity Verification” (KYC) step, then this article is for you. Don’t worry—this process is actually very simple and quick, taking only about 5–10 minutes if you have the documents ready. Today, I’ll guide you step by step to complete KYC in Vietnam in the most detailed and easy-to-understand way.

First, understand why KYC is important. KYC (Know Your Customer) is not only a mandatory procedure for exchanges to comply with international law, but also the first layer of protection for your account. When you complete KYC, you can increase your withdrawal limit to the maximum, use full products such as P2P, Futures, and Staking, and receive more priority customer support if issues arise. In other words, without KYC you can only use the “hand-carry goods.”

**Step 1: Prepare the necessary documents**

For Vietnamese citizens, Binance accepts two main types of documents:

- **ID card/Citizen ID card:** Preferably use the chip-based Citizen ID card (hard copy) for the clearest scan quality.

- **Passport:** If your Citizen ID card is blurry or you are abroad, a passport is a good alternative.

An important note: Please take photos of the documents in a well-lit place, without obstruction, and without glare. If you use a Citizen ID card, you must photograph both the front and back. In addition, prepare a phone with a good camera and a stable internet connection for the selfie video.

**Step 2: Access the KYC page**

Log in to your Binance account on the App (phone) or Website (computer). Move your mouse to the profile icon in the top right corner, select **“Identity Verification”** (or go to **Account -> Security -> Identity Verification**). Click the **“Start”** button to proceed.

**Step 3: Select country and document type**

The system will automatically detect the country based on your IP, or you can choose it manually from the list. Please select **Vietnam**. Next, choose the type of document you have prepared. I recommend choosing **Citizen ID card** because processing time is usually faster than with a passport.

**Step 4: Enter personal information**

You need to fill in the fields accurately, such as Full Name, Date of Birth, Gender, and Citizen ID/ID number. **Very important note:** The name on your document must match 100% with the name you used to register your Binance account. If your account name is abbreviated, please change it before KYC to avoid rejection. Enter it in the correct order: Last name - Middle name - First name, with the first letter capitalized.

**Step 5: Upload document images**

You will be asked to upload images of the front and back of your Citizen ID card. Make sure the images are clear and not cropped. If using a webcam on a computer, position the document so it fits neatly within the frame. Photos taken with a phone are usually of better quality, so if you use a computer, you can choose “Upload from device” and send the photos from your phone via a messaging app.

**Step 6: Face verification (Selfie)**

This is the most important step. Binance will ask you to open your camera and record a short selfie video of about 3-5 seconds. At this point, make sure your face is centered in the frame, do not wear glasses, hats, or anything covering your face. The system will ask you to blink or open your mouth to confirm that you are a real person, not a screenshot. Do it slowly and in sufficient light so the system can recognize you accurately.

**Step 7: Wait and check the result**

After completion, Binance will display the status **“Processing”**. Normally, the review time is only 1 to 10 minutes. In some cases of high traffic or blurry documents, it may take up to 24 hours. You will receive an email notification with the result. If rejected, don’t panic! Just click the **“Verify Again”** button, read the reason for rejection carefully (usually blurry images or mismatched information), and start over.

**A few small tips to avoid KYC errors**

- Do not use a VPN when performing KYC, as Binance may suspect unusual activity and request additional verification.

- If you are abroad and using a Vietnamese passport, make sure the passport is still valid and the photo is not glare-affected by the flash.

- Absolutely do not edit document images with any software, even to slightly brighten them. The system will detect it and mark it as fake.

- Double-check whether your name includes Vietnamese diacritics. If your Citizen ID card says “Nguyen Van A” but your account says “Nguyễn Văn A,” you need to match every character.

I hope this guide helps you complete KYC smoothly. It only takes a few minutes to help protect your assets in the long term, and that is absolutely worth it. Wishing you success on your journey to explore the world of cryptocurrency!
