A note: which document types count, and how far back still counts as "recent," vary by region and change as Binance updates its policy. The "last 3 months" above is a common rule of thumb, not a fixed rule — before you upload, go by whatever the Binance verification page asks for at that moment (this page was compiled and checked in June 2026). It's a self-check only and doesn't mean the platform will approve your file.
Why proof of address gets bounced so often
The usual reasons: the document is too old, it shows a name but no full address, it's a type Binance won't accept, or the photo is blurry or has a finger over one corner. Spending a minute going through each point before you submit beats getting rejected and starting over. For how to prepare each item and which documents work, read the companion piece on preparing your Binance proof of address.
