Requirements for KYC Level 1 (Basic — Recommended)

You will need:

• HKID or passport
• Smartphone camera for selfie/liveness check
• 5–10 minutes of time

---

Step 1: Access the Verification Centre

1. Log in to MEXC app or website
2. Tap your profile icon (top right)
3. Tap Identity Verification (or KYC)
4. Tap Verify Now under Level 1

---

Step 2: Select Your Country and Document

1. Country: Hong Kong (China) — search and select from the dropdown
2. Document type: choose HKID (recommended) or Passport

---

Step 3: Upload Your HKID

Taking a good HKID photo:

• Place the HKID on a dark, plain background
• Ensure all 4 corners are visible and not cut off
• Adequate lighting — no flash glare on the card
• All text must be readable (not blurry)
• No shadows crossing the card

Front side:

• Tap Upload or use camera → take/select photo → confirm

Back side (if required):

• Repeat process for the back

---

Step 4: Complete the Liveness/Selfie Check

MEXC uses automated face recognition. The process typically involves:

1. Hold your phone at eye level
2. Face the camera in good lighting
3. Follow on-screen instructions: smile, turn left, turn right, or blink
4. Do not wear sunglasses, hat, or heavy makeup

The liveness check confirms the photo on your HKID matches your face and that a live person is submitting the application.

---

Step 5: Submit and Wait

Tap Submit. KYC review status:

• Automated approval (most common): 5–30 minutes
• Manual review: 1–5 business days
• Rejection: Resubmit with clearer photos

You receive a notification when approved.

---

Why KYC Gets Rejected

Most common reasons:

1. Blurry or incomplete HKID photo
2. Photo cropped — HKID corners not visible
3. Flash reflection covering text
4. Selfie face does not match HKID photo
5. Document expired or damaged
6. Country/document type mismatch

How to fix: Retake the photo in natural daylight on a dark background. Use the rear camera on your phone (higher resolution). Try a different document if HKID fails.

---

KYC Level 2 (Advanced — Optional)

Level 2 is required for very high withdrawal volumes and advanced fiat features:

1. After Level 1 approval, return to Identity Verification
2. Tap Level 2 Verification
3. Provide proof of address (utility bill, bank statement — must show name and HK address)

---

After KYC: Next Steps

Once verified:

Enable Google Authenticator: Profile → Security → Google Authenticator → Enable

Buy your first coin:

• Buy Crypto → Quick Buy → enter amount → select coin → pay
• Or P2P → Buy → USDT → FPS

Explore MEXC Earn: Earn → MEXC Earn → subscribe USDT for interest

Troubleshooting MEXC Verification Issues

Verification shows "Processing" for more than 24 hours: Contact MEXC Support via in-app chat with your submission ID.

System says document is "not supported": Try switching from HKID to passport or vice versa.

Liveness check keeps failing: Try in brighter lighting, with no distracting background. Remove glasses if wearing them.
