How to Open an Individual Trading Account: Required Documents
Updated over 3 months ago

To open an individual trading account with FXTRADING.com, you'll need to provide specific documents through our Client Portal (https://fxt-chn.com/en/trading-platform/). This guide outlines the essential documentation required for account verification.

Required Documents:
Proof of Identity (POI)
Proof of Address (POA) - dated within the last three months

Proof of Identity Options:
• National Identification Card
• Passport
• Driver's License
• Other government-issued identification documents

Your POI must clearly show:
• Identification document number
• Full name
• Date of birth
• Expiry date

Proof of Address Options:
• Utility bill
• Phone bill
• Bank statement
• Internet bill
• Rental agreement
• Valid photo ID with address (if different from POI)

Important Notes:
• POA must be dated within the last three months
• Documents should be in full format, clearly showing name and address
• PO Boxes are not accepted

Special Considerations:
• If your POI (e.g., civil identity document) clearly shows your current address, additional POA may not be necessary
• This applies to documents issued in countries including, but not limited to, the People's Republic of China, Taiwan, Singapore, and Malaysia

To ensure a smooth and efficient process, please note that we cannot accept documents that fall under any of the following categories:

1. Black and white copies
2. Blurry or unclear images
3. Expired documents
4. Fake or forged documents
5. Documents modified by image editors
6. Incomplete documents
7. Documents where the name does not match the applicant's name
8. Scanned copies of already scanned documents

To avoid any delays in your account opening process, please ensure that your ID and POA documents are:

- In color
- Clear and legible
- Currently valid and not expired
- Original and unaltered
- Complete with all necessary information visible
- Matching the name provided in your application
- Original scans or photographs (not copies of copies)


For Australian Clients:
In addition to the standard documentation, you'll be required to complete a brief online questionnaire to assess your basic trading knowledge.

By providing these documents through the Client Portal, you'll ensure a smooth account opening process for your 真实账户 (live account) or 模拟账户 (demo account) with FXTRADING.com.
