How to complete KYC verification with KuCoin in the Middle East (2025)

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

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 Middle East.

Fees are the part most people skip. KuCoin 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.

Withdrawals deserve a dry run. Send a small amount first, confirm the network, and check the address character by character. A single wrong character is the most common cause of lost funds.

Taxes differ by jurisdiction. In the Middle East, 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.

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