Binance is working hard to improve its ties with Indian regulators and is enforcing stricter Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements.
The crypto exchange previously faced several frictions with Indian regulators, including atemporal service disruptions. Since returning to India, Binance is seeking to rebuild trust and align its operations with local policy demands.
Indian Binance users, both new and old, are required to complete KYC re-verification. This policy aligns Binance with India’s anti-money laundering (AML) framework. In addition, it reflects Binance’s commitment to stay compliant.

anti-money laundering (AML) laws.

Binance also displayed its willingness to cooperate with India’s regulators by getting registered with India’s Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU). As part of the process, users must now provide their Permanent Account Number (PAN). As per reports, this is a standard requirement under Indian AML regulations.
Not an imposed rule
Binance, in its announcement, clarified that the verification process is not unique to its platform. “This requirement is not unique to Binance and equally applies to all local and global exchanges registered under India’s AML legislation,” the crypto exchange said, aiming to clarify that it’s following national standards, not imposing arbitrary rules.
To ease concerns, Binance reassured users that it will only request data mandated by local law, promising safety to all user data. As per local reports, the trading platform has already contacted some users via email, offering reverification tips.
With crypto becoming mainstream, many argue that KYC measures will provide an extra layer of safety. Most industry observers view Binance’s new KYC policy as a positive sign.

Binance is rebuilding its global reputation.
Binance’s cooperation with regulators is not limited to India. The exchange is taking clear steps to rebuild trust with regulators globally following several years of legal challenges.
The crypto exchange faced investigations in several countries, including accusations of being used for money laundering. Binance faced further damage after its former CEO, Changpeng Zhao (CZ), pleaded guilty to violating U.S. anti-money laundering laws. The crypto exchange also paid around $4.3 billion in fines to the U.S.
