What to Prepare for Resubmitting Binance Address Verification When Your Address Uses English Spelling?

 /

Having your English-spelled address rejected is almost never because the Binance system "does not recognize English", but because the address you entered does not match the text on your supporting proof document, or the document itself fails to meet compliance requirements. Before resubmission, the key step is to confirm 100% word-for-word consistency between the "address you filled in" and the address printed on your uploaded document.

1. First Confirm the Exact Reason for Rejection

What to do: Check the system pop-up prompt or official email notification to confirm if the rejection reason points to "address mismatch" or "non-compliant document".

How to proceed:

The non-negotiable hard rule for Binance address verification is: The address you enter must be completely identical to the address printed on your uploaded proof document. There are only two core categories of common rejection reasons:

  • Address information mismatch: The address you filled in your Binance account differs from the text displayed on your utility bill or bank statement, including mismatches in capitalization, abbreviations, punctuation marks, and spaces.

  • Non-compliant document itself: The bill is past the valid period, uses the wrong format (screenshots or physical copies are not accepted), or belongs to an unsupported document type.

Completion criteria: You have clearly confirmed whether the rejection is caused by "address inconsistency" or "unqualified document".

Common failure scenarios: You casually filled in your address in Chinese during registration, but the uploaded bill uses English spelling, the system detects the inconsistency and rejects the application directly. Or you used Chinese to fill in the address at the basic verification stage, then tried to switch to English for a "more professional" look during advanced verification, which leads to inconsistent cross-record mismatches.

2. If the issue is address mismatch: Re-enter the address exactly as it appears on your bill

What to do: Open the original copy of your address proof document, copy the address text on it directly, without any self-initiated translation or modification.

How to proceed:

Per Binance official instructions, the address entered during the address verification process "must be consistent with the address on your proof of address document".

Step-by-step operation:

  1. Open the original file of your utility bill, bank statement or internet service bill

  2. Locate the full address on the bill (including house number, floor, street, city, postal code, etc.)

  3. On the Binance address verification page, copy the address text word for word from the bill

    • If your bill uses English spelling → fill in English exactly as written, do not adjust capitalization, do not modify any abbreviations

    • If your bill uses Chinese → fill in Chinese, the Binance system fully supports Chinese input

  4. Do not "translate" or "optimize" the address format on your own

Completion criteria: The re-entered address is 100% identical to the address text on your proof of address document, with all characters, spaces and abbreviations matching exactly.

Risk reminder: Binance.US explicitly requires that your service address must be consistent with your account registration address. If the bill shows a different mailing address and service address, the service address shall prevail. P.O. Box addresses are not accepted under any circumstances.

3. If there is an issue with the document itself: Check the validity period and format

What to do: Verify that your proof of address document meets Binance's basic acceptance standards.

How to proceed:

Per Binance official Help Center and public address verification guidelines, check the following items:

  • Validity period: Address proof validity requirements vary by region, most regions require bills issued within the last 3 months, while a small number of regions require bills issued within the last 6 months.

  • Format: PDF format is strongly recommended for submission. Binance.US explicitly requires address proof documents to be submitted in PDF format, screenshots or photos may not be accepted.

  • Supported document types: Accepted proof of address types on Binance include utility bills (water, electricity, gas), internet service bills, landline phone bills, bank statements, investment account statements, government-issued correspondence, etc. Mobile phone prepaid bills are usually not accepted.

  • Full information: The bill must display your full name, full address, issue date and issuing institution information (such as official logo or valid contact details).

Completion criteria: You confirm that the bill you have on hand is within the valid period, in correct format, and belongs to the official accepted document type list.

Common failure reasons: You submitted a mobile phone bill, which Binance explicitly does not accept as valid proof of address. Or you submitted a photocopy or black and white scan, while Binance requires a color photo or color scan of the original document.

4. Confirm the result after resubmission

What to do: Correct all identified issues, re-upload the compliant documents, and wait for the official review result.

How to proceed:

  1. Open the Binance App, go to the [Identity Verification] page, and find the dedicated address verification entry

  2. Re-enter the address information according to the corrected details

  3. Upload the compliant proof document (PDF format is preferred)

  4. After submission, wait for the review result, which is usually released within 1-2 working days

Completion criteria: You have successfully resubmitted all materials, and the application status is updated to "Under Review". Pay close attention to notifications from the App message center.
