How to Change Your Phone Number on Binance - Complete Guide

· 6 min read
Step-by-step instructions for changing your linked phone number on Binance, covering both scenarios: with and without access to the old number.

Changing your phone number on Binance requires security verification. With your old number available, the self-service process takes about 5 minutes. If the old number is no longer active, identity verification or customer support is needed. Withdrawals are restricted for 24 hours after the change.

If you do not have a Binance account, first register on the Binance official website. Download the official Binance app (iPhone users, see the iOS installation guide) for a smoother security settings experience.

With Old Phone Number Available

Online security settings

  1. Log in to Binance App, tap your profile icon
  2. Go to "Security" > "Phone Verification"
  3. Tap "Change Phone Number"
  4. Enter verification code sent to old phone
  5. Enter email verification code
  6. Enter Google Authenticator code (if enabled)
  7. Enter your new phone number (select correct country code)
  8. Enter verification code sent to new phone
  9. Change complete

Without Old Phone Number

Method 1: Self-service Reset

Click "Unable to get verification code" during the old phone verification step. Submit ID photos and selfie for identity verification. After approval, bind the new number normally.

Method 2: Contact Customer Support

Open Binance App > "Help Center" > "Online Support". Explain your situation and submit ID documents. Processing: 1-3 business days.

Method 3: Submit a Ticket

Submit a support ticket on the Binance website under "Account Security" > "Change Phone Number". Processing: 3-7 business days.

After Changing Your Phone Number

Account security protection

  • Withdrawal restriction: 24-hour withdrawal freeze after change
  • C2C trading: May be temporarily limited
  • Login notification: Email sent about the phone number change
  • Trading and deposits are not affected.

Security Tips

  1. Only change through official channels
  2. Never share verification codes
  3. Check all security settings after the change
  4. Beware of anyone offering to "help you change" your number
  5. If the old number may be reassigned, unbind it before canceling
  6. Record your new phone number in a secure location

New number already bound to another Binance account?

The other person must unbind first. One phone number per account.

Does changing phone affect referral relationships?

No. Referral data is tied to your account UID, not your phone number.

Can I use a foreign phone number?

Yes. Binance supports most countries. Select the correct international code.

Do I need to redo KYC after changing phone?

No. KYC status is independent of phone number.
