STEP 2 GUIDE
Binance KYC Guide
Binance verification is worth finishing early if you plan to trade futures, expand withdrawal limits, or use more account features. Submission itself usually takes only a few minutes.
Menu labels may change slightly depending on app or web version updates.
Documents
National ID, driver's license, or passport
Time to submit
Usually around 5 minutes
Key check
Match your legal name and birth date
What to prepare first
- Prepare to take clear photos of your document in a bright place with low glare.
- Double-check that the name on your account matches your document.
- Enable camera permission in advance so the selfie step goes smoothly.
Verification steps
1
Open the verification menu
After logging in, open the Profile area and look for Identification or Verify. Choose the personal account flow.
2
Select country and document type
Choose your residence country and the ID type you want to submit. A passport is often the easiest to photograph cleanly.
3
Enter your basic details
Fill in your legal name, date of birth, and nationality. Keep everything exactly aligned with your document.
4
Upload your document
Take and upload the requested document images. Avoid cropped edges, blur, or glare that hides important text.
5
Finish selfie verification
Complete the selfie or liveness check, submit, and then wait for the approval result in the app or by email.
Tips for faster approval
- Capture the full document with all edges visible.
- Remove hats, masks, and dark glasses before the selfie scan.
- After submission, give the review some time instead of repeatedly resubmitting.
If you get stuck
- A mismatched legal name can trigger a manual review.
- Disabled camera access often blocks the selfie step.
- Some flows require a live capture rather than uploading an old photo.
