Know Your Customer (KYC) Questionnaire

As per our global Anti-Money Laundering (AML) requirements, Kraken must ensure that it verifies the identity of its clients and performs the necessary KYC checks. These questions are included as part of your Kraken onboarding process.

As per our global AML requirements, Kraken must ensure that it verifies the identity of its clients and performs the necessary KYC checks. Your KYC information helps Kraken:

• Protect your account from unauthorized activity

• Detect and prevent fraud or financial crime

• Ensure we meet our regulatory obligations around the world

Providing this information is an important security step and helps us keep the platform safe for everyone.

All Kraken clients are required to fill out the KYC questionnaire to gain access to Kraken’s products and services.

The KYC questionnaire is a required part of onboarding. It ensures we comply with regulations and gives you a secure, fully functional account once completed.

Regulations also require financial institutions to keep client information accurate and up to date.

For this reason, Kraken will periodically ask you to:

• Review your profile information.

• Confirm that everything is still accurate.

• Update any details that may have changed.

When it’s time to complete this review, you’ll see a prompt after signing in to Kraken. You’ll have 90 days to confirm or update your information at your convenience. If the review isn’t completed within that timeframe, certain account features may be temporarily restricted until the information is updated.
