How to unlock Derivatives trading for EEA clients

This article will help you unlock Kraken Derivatives trading if you're located in the European Economic Area.

If you're an existing client, no action is required at this time. We'll contact you in the coming weeks with more information about the next steps for transitioning to our new regulated entity.

New clients registering with Kraken will follow a streamlined process to access MiFID II-regulated products:

  1. 1

    Account creation and verification: Complete the standard Kraken sign up process, including Tier 3 or Tier 4 verification.

  2. 2

    Questionnaire and tax information: If you select any MiFID II licensed products, you will be prompted to complete the appropriateness questionnaire and provide your TIN.

  3. 3

    Activate products: Once you complete the required steps, your chosen products will be unlocked with the appropriate regulatory protections based on your client classification.
