I hate doing KYC procedure, but if the project or company is trustworthy I don’t have a problem with doing that. If some airDrops or small bounties require KYC in the end, it is possibly a scam and fishing.

Before I make deposit  in any exchange,  I have to know first they offer unverified account for withdrawal or not. This very important for me for my money.  I have verified account in gate.io and I used only national ID to get it, and they proceeded  that verification  just a few hours. For the better ask again in their telegram official to know more about verification process.

Similarly, bittrex can not deposit and withdraw when your account is not verified.I think it's hard to get the rules in these exchanges maybe all exchangers need to
 It is necessary that the kyc will have the bounty hunter here.

It's so sad news. I think they should add more option for the various country because everyone doesn't have Passport. But there is more one problem for exchange site or who ask for KYC if we don't have any ID or Driver licenses in international language English. one the other hand it's not a public fault so they should have a different department where can read multiple languages (for user help). However at this time request to Gate.io, please add more option to verify user ID.

exchanges that add KYC out of nowhere without any warnings are the worst. they basically fuck their users in the ass one day and expect them to thank them also.

and in my opinion they kill their own business by doing it too. people aren't going to give up their information at all they will simply move to another exchange. that is how Binance grew big to #1 rank.
and eventually they will all go extinct and be replaced by decentralized exchanges

I also ran into this. When I refilled the balance and started to withdraw my coins, I was asked to pass KYC. It took me 2 days.

Automatic KYC with facial recognition & ID scanning technology, passport in 3 seconds
For withdrawal in verifying status, you must go through KYC2 first.
You can access your account, then click Wallet> KYC to upload your photo card and the required information.
After completing KYC1, you can proceed through KYC2.
When you complete KYC2, your withdrawal will take place immediately.
If you have completed KYC2, your withdrawal will run smoothly

I am aware of the process. I am just not aware that KYC is needed before withrawal because I once used gate.io before and there was no KYC POLICY. My friend just also withdraw from gate just a few weeks ago without KYC. Are expired passports allowed?
In any KYC verifications expired documents or id's wont really be valid in all sorts.I was even shocked that they do already required KYC when you do ask for withdrawal and you are right they didnt even give out an announcement or just an email regarding on such new requirement but hence inspite of lacking passport since i was still not able to process that passport because it isnt necessary the method above me do works and been approved. Drivers license would do and tell them about your situation. The thing i do love is that they do verified fast.

This is what you do...

Upload your GATE.IO id along with drivers license.
Follow the directions...it's right there on the KYC page...

Do this for all THREE passport photo REQUIREMENT uploads


Just use your DL instead of Passport


I was approved in one day

It was only today that it came to my knowledge that KYC is now needed to withdraw in Gate.io. The thing is, there was no warning that KYC compliance is needed before withdrawal. I can deposit whenever I want without KYC but upon depositing, a pop up dialog box states "ACTION REQUIRED: KYC REQUIRED". And there are no other options for id, only passport. I don't have one but I could provide driver's license or NBI clearance. Those are government issued too but gate.io has no other options for id. I am so frustrated right now. I hope this will be fixed.

Honestly, good thing the noticed popped-up upon deposits and not after since it's way more worrying on your part as you are having difficulty how to be verified as there are no options for other identification card.

Also kind of surprise here that only passports are allowed for verification hmm. Mind contacting their customer support to verify that those are only accepted? Give it a shot as you will be more enlightened if the support will tell you what options you might want to consider.


Oh no. Sorry I was mistaken. To clarify, THERE WAS NO WARNING ABOUT KYC WHEN DEPOSITING. The dialog box appears when you try to WITHDRAW it. I'd try contacting their customer support. Thank you.

Yes, this has been true for the past 2-3 months. Some users have stated that a tor browser allowed them to bypass this; might be worth a shot.

I believe it is just very recent because a friend of mine had transactions just weeks ago. He was able to withdraw from gate without KYC, only via SMS authentication. That is why I asked for his help but to our discovery, gate has changed its rules already and I was not informed about it.
