Complete Your Verification Process with Exness in the Philippines

Get your account verified quickly and start trading confidently with Exness tailored for Filipino users.

Why Verification Matters and What You’ll Need

When you sign up with our platform, the verification process is a key step that keeps your account secure and compliant with regulations. It’s not just bureaucratic red tape—it’s about protecting your funds and making sure everything runs smoothly. For traders in the Philippines, this means providing specific documents that confirm your identity and address. From our experience, having these ready upfront saves you a lot of time and frustration.

You’ll mainly deal with two parts: identity verification and address verification. We usually see most users complete this within 24 hours, as long as the documents are clear and valid. But weekends or unclear photos can slow things down.

Verification StepRequired Documents
Identity VerificationPhilippine Passport, Driver’s License, UMID, PRC or SSS ID
Address VerificationRecent Utility Bills, Bank Statements, Barangay Certificates

We recommend preparing these documents before you start. That way, you won’t have to pause halfway through to hunt them down.

How to Upload Your Identity Documents Correctly

Once you’re logged in, head over to your account settings and look for the verification section. You’ll see where identity verification is needed. Clicking there will open the upload interface.

Here’s a little tip that saves a lot of hassle: take your document photos in natural light and make sure they’re sharp and clear. Blurry or cropped photos are the main reason verifications get delayed.

Also, remember to check that your ID isn’t expired. For example, if you use a driver’s license, it must be current. Otherwise, you’ll get rejected and have to resubmit.

  • Use your phone’s highest camera resolution
  • Place the document flat on a surface with no glare
  • Include the whole document, edges and all

Following these simple steps can cut your verification time by hours.

Nailing the Address Verification Part

Address verification is often where things get a bit tricky. We require proof that matches the address you gave when signing up, and the document must be recent—no older than 3 months.

In the Philippines, common accepted documents include Meralco bills, water bills, and bank statements from major banks like BPI or BDO. Barangay certificates also work well if you don’t have utility bills in your name.

Document TypeHow RecentNotes
Meralco BillWithin 3 monthsMost reliable for address proof
Bank StatementWithin 3 monthsMust clearly show your address
Barangay CertificateIssued within last 3 monthsGood alternative if no bills available

Make sure the document shows your full name exactly as in your account, and that the address matches perfectly. If it doesn’t, you’ll have to resubmit, which just delays things.

Avoiding the Most Common Verification Pitfalls

Honestly, a lot of verification delays come down to a few avoidable mistakes. Here’s what users tell us trips them up:

  • Submitting blurry or cropped photos
  • Using expired IDs or wrong document types
  • Mismatched names or addresses between documents and account info
  • Uploading outdated address proofs

To help, here’s a quick checklist before you submit:

  1. Check your document’s expiry date
  2. Verify that your account name matches the ID exactly
  3. Make sure your address proof is recent and matches registration details
  4. Use natural light and keep documents flat for photos

What Happens Behind the Scenes After You Submit

Once you hit submit, your documents enter our review queue. During Philippine business hours (Monday to Friday, 8 AM to 5 PM PHT), our team reviews submissions pretty quickly—usually within 24 hours. If you upload on weekends or holidays, expect a delay until the next working day.

You can track your verification status anytime by logging in. We’ll also send updates via email as your verification moves through these stages:

  • Documents Received
  • Under Review
  • Additional Information Required (if any)
  • Verification Complete

If your status is stuck for more than 48 hours during business days, reaching out to support is a good move. Sometimes a manual review is needed, which takes longer but is normal.

How to Fix Verification Issues Quickly

If your documents get rejected, don’t worry. The email you receive will explain why, and you can re-upload right away.

Here’s what you can do depending on the issue:

IssueHow to Fix

Keeping Your Data Safe During Verification

I know uploading personal documents online can feel risky. That’s why we use bank-level encryption on all uploads. Your files are secured during transfer and storage, and only authorized staff access them for verification. Once verified, your documents are deleted from our servers automatically.

We follow strict data protection standards to keep your information safe, including SSL encryption, regular security checks, and no sharing of documents with third parties.

What Changes Once You’re Verified
