Registration and identity checks
Account setup, missing codes and identity checks are collected here. Start with the registration walkthrough, then open the guide for the step that stopped you: why verification is required, why a code does not arrive, or what a rejection means.
- How to open a Binance account: every field explainedRegistration takes five minutes, but people get stuck on codes that never arrive, a referral field they miss, and identity checks that keep getting rejected. This walks every field, plus what to do when each one fails.
- Do I have to verify my identity to buy bitcoin?On a regulated exchange, yes. Why the requirement exists, exactly what they ask for, what happens to the documents, and an honest look at what the routes around it actually cost you.
- Verification code not arriving? Stop pressing resendPressing resend genuinely makes it worse. Email codes and SMS codes fail for completely different reasons, so check them separately. A full checklist for both, in order.
- Identity verification keeps failing? Fixes by error messageFive categories of rejection, each with its real cause and the specific fix. Plus how to photograph a document so it passes first time, and when resubmitting makes things worse.
