How to Verify My Residential Address on Binance? (Applicable to All Users)

To verify your account, we are required to collect one or two documents from you: Proof of Identity (POI) and Proof of Address (POA). We can only verify your identity when you provide the required documents. The Proof of Address is a document that validates your address. During account verification, you will be asked to enter your full name and residential address and upload a document proving this is where you live.

The document you upload must meet specific criteria to be eligible as proof of your address. It must be issued in your name and match the name of the Binance account owner. It also must not be older than three months and contain the following information:

• Your Name
• Your Home Address
• The Date of Issue
• The Issuing Authority
• A Reference to the Issuing Authority (e.g., a logo, contact information, or a website)

You need to upload a copy of the document showing your full name, which clearly indicates: your residential address, the date of issuance, and the name of the issuer. It needs to be dated within three months before the date of submission.
