From the day of your first deposit, you are given a time limit of 30 days to complete your verification process. You can check the remaining days for verification in your Personal Area. If you are failed to fulfill the requirements within the 30-day limit, all of your deposits, transfers, and trading functions will be temporarily deactivated until you complete the verification process.

In Exness, the full verification process requires you to complete an Economic Profile and submit Proof of Identity (POI) as well as Proof of Residence documents. The Economic Profile is basically a survey containing several questions regarding your trading experience.

  • Make sure that all four edges of the document are shown.
  • Make sure to upload high-quality pictures.
  • The document must be officially issued by the government or legitimate authority.
  • The document can be a photo, scan, or photocopy.
  • Accepted document formats are jpg, jpeg, mp4, mov, webm, m4v, png, bmp, and pdf.
  • The document's file size must be under 64 MB.

 

Proof of Identity

Proof of Residence

To provide Proof of Residence, you can prepare:

  • Utility Bill (electricity, water, gas, internet, landline telephone)
