Important Changes About Binance Identity Verification

2021-08-20 07:01

Fellow Binancians,

Binance reviews its products and services on an ongoing basis to determine changes and improvements in light of evolving global compliance standards. To enhance user protections and provide a safe crypto environment for everyone, Binance is making the following changes:

  • Effective immediately, all new users are required to complete [Verified] Verification to access Binance products and service offerings, including cryptocurrency deposits and trades. 

  • Existing users who have not yet completed [Verified] Verification will have their account permissions temporarily changed to “Withdraw Only”, with services limited to withdrawal, order cancellation, position close, and redemption. This will be carried out in phases to minimize user-experience disruption, from now through 2021-10-19 00:00 AM (UTC). Existing users will be informed directly with more details. Once users complete the [Verified] Verification, they will be able to resume full access to Binance products and services.

Binance strongly advises users to complete their [Verified] Verification promptly to avoid delays in the verification process and restrictions on their access.

Binance is announcing these measures to help support its efforts in Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML). This will further enhance user protection and combat financial crime. To learn more about KYC, please click here
