This article is a nanny-level tutorial for novice users in mainland China, aiming to solve the difficulties of Binance registration caused by network and policy restrictions. We will guide you step by step to complete all the preliminary preparations, and disassemble every link of registration and identity verification (KYC) in detail to ensure that you can start your digital asset trading journey smoothly and safely.
1. Breaking down barriers: a checklist of things to do before registering on Binance
Before embarking on the Binance journey, we need to prepare some "special equipment" to bypass access barriers and improve account security. This is not a technical problem, just follow the map.
1. Essential Internet Tools (Scientific Internet Access)
Why is it necessary? Binance main site has restricted IP addresses from mainland China, and direct access will fail. Scientific Internet access tools are a bridge to the outside world.
Node selection recommendations: To obtain the best access speed and stability, it is recommended to select server nodes in Taiwan, Japan or Singapore.
Tool recommendation: Reliable options on the market include but are not limited to TAG Internet, AgentNEO, etc. The key is to download through the official website and be wary of any cracked or free versions from unknown sources, which may steal your data.
2. Globally accessible email
Why is it necessary? The verification code in the registration process is a key step. Domestic mailboxes (such as QQ, 163) may be blocked, resulting in delayed or complete failure of email reception.
Recommended options:
Gmail (Google Mail): The most universal and stable one in the world.
Outlook (Microsoft Mail): It is also a mainstream international choice with stable email receiving.
ProtonMail: The first choice for users who value privacy and security.
2. Practical Exercise: Detailed Explanation of Binance Account Registration and KYC Certification Process
It is recommended to use a computer browser to perform the following operations for a better experience.
Step 1: Enter the official registration channel
Visit through the secure Binance official invitation link https://www.binance.com/zh-CN/join?ref=36K, referral code: 36K; this will ensure that you are entering the official website and not a phishing website. Select "Register by email/mobile phone number".
Step 2: Fill in the core registration information
Give priority to "Email registration".
Enter your prepared overseas email address.
Set a strong password (it is recommended to include uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols).
Click “Register”, then go to your email, find the 6-digit verification code sent by Binance and fill it in to complete the initial registration.
Step 3: Start identity verification (KYC)
After successful registration, the system will automatically guide you to "go for verification".
In the first step of the certification process, the system will ask you to select your "Country/Region of Residence". Please be sure to select "China". Once this option is confirmed, it cannot be changed.
Step 4: Submit personal identification information
Nationality: Select “China”.
Name: Must be exactly the same as the name on your ID card.
Document type: It is recommended to use "ID card".
Upload ID: Upload photos of the front and back of your ID card as required. Make sure the photos are clear, non-reflective, and have complete edges.
Step 5: Complete face recognition verification
This is the final step of verification. The system will use your computer's camera to scan your face.
Please complete the actions according to the prompts on the screen (such as nodding, opening your mouth, turning your head).
If your computer does not have a camera, the system will generate a QR code. You can scan the QR code using the Binance app on your phone and continue with the facial recognition process on your phone.
3. Common Questions and Safety Tips
How long does the review take? Usually it can be completed within a few minutes to a few hours after submission. If it fails, Binance will email you the specific reason (such as blurry photos). You can modify it according to the prompts and resubmit it.
APP download issue: Android users can download the APK installation package directly from the official website. Apple iPhone users need an Apple ID outside of mainland China to search and download the Binance APP in the App Store.
Safety first: Never disclose your login password, verification code or private key to any unofficial platform. Be wary of any private messages or calls claiming to be from Binance customer service.
Through the above steps, you have not only successfully registered an account, but also passed the KYC certification to add a solid line of defense for the security of your assets.
