How to close my Binance account and withdraw remaining balance?

Account Closure Eligibility Verification

1. All active orders must be fully canceled or executed before initiating closure.

2. No open positions exist across spot, margin, futures, or options trading interfaces.

3. The account must not be flagged for any ongoing compliance review or security investigation.

4. Two-factor authentication must remain enabled and functional during the entire process.

5. KYC verification status must be confirmed as “Verified” in the Identity Verification section.

Withdrawal of Remaining Balance

1. All fiat balances must be withdrawn via supported bank transfer, SWIFT, or local payment methods before account deactivation.

2. Cryptocurrency holdings require manual transfer to an external wallet; Binance does not auto-convert or refund crypto upon closure.

3. Withdrawal limits apply: daily caps vary by verification level—Level 1 allows up to 2 BTC equivalent, Level 2 permits up to 100 BTC equivalent.

4. Each withdrawal incurs a network fee determined by the blockchain’s current congestion and token type—e.g., ETH withdrawals use dynamic gas pricing.

5. Fiat withdrawals may require 1–5 business days depending on jurisdiction and banking partner processing times.

Step-by-Step Closure Procedure

1. Log into your Binance account using desktop browser—mobile app does not support full account termination.

2. Navigate to “Security” → “Account Closure” under the Account Settings menu.

3. Enter your password and complete the SMS or TOTP verification challenge.

4. Select “Close Account Permanently” and confirm with a final re-authentication step.

5. A confirmation email is sent to the registered address; the account enters a 7-day cooling-off period during which reversal is possible.

Post-Closure Data Handling

1. Transaction history remains accessible for download in CSV format until the end of the cooling-off window.

2. API keys are automatically revoked upon submission of the closure request—not after finalization.

3. All saved addresses, whitelists, and withdrawal templates are permanently erased at closure completion.

4. Email notifications for trade executions or balance changes cease immediately after the cooling-off period ends.

5. Login attempts after closure yield a generic “Account not found” error—no distinction between non-existent and closed accounts is exposed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. Can I reopen a closed Binance account using the same email? No. Once finalized, the email address is permanently blacklisted from re-registration for 365 days.

Q2. What happens to my referral earnings if I close the account mid-cycle? Unsettled referral commissions are forfeited; only payouts processed before the cooling-off period begin are honored.

Q3. Will my Binance NFT collection be transferred or archived? All NFTs held in the Binance NFT Marketplace wallet are irreversibly lost unless manually withdrawn to an external Ethereum or BSC-compatible wallet prior to closure.

Q4. Is there a way to retain VIP status benefits after closure? VIP tiers, fee discounts, and staking privileges terminate instantly upon account deactivation—no grace period or migration path exists.
