How to complete KYC verification with Binance in the US (2025)

If you plan to complete KYC verification in the US, start with the basics of Binance. This 2025 guide explains the exact steps, the documents you may be asked for, and the common mistakes that delay the process.

This page is part of a living guide. The steps reflect the 2025 interface of Binance; when the platform ships a redesign, the checklist is updated and the change date is noted.

Most users in the US follow the same path: create the account, verify identity, then choose a funding method that matches your local currency. The sections below break each step into small actions you can complete in one sitting.

Taxes differ by jurisdiction. In the US, keep a record of every transaction you make while you complete KYC verification: date, amount, fee, and counterparty. Most local tax offices accept a simple spreadsheet.

Security comes before convenience. Enable two-factor authentication, review active sessions, and make sure the email and phone attached to the account are ones you control in the US.

Fees are the part most people skip. Binance publishes a fee schedule that changes by market, order type, and volume. Before you complete KYC verification, read the current schedule so the cost is predictable, not a surprise.
