What verification means at FxPro
Verification is the process of checking a client's identity and address before full account operation. FxPro's official FAQ section on identification states that a valid passport, national identity card, or driver's license is accepted for identity confirmation. This is a general description of documents; the specific request is generated in FxPro Direct and depends on your situation and country of residence.
Proof of address may be requested separately. a document showing your name and address, dated within the last six months. This is not a fixed list: the wording of the official source allows for a request rather than guaranteeing a universal set of papers.
Terms and requirements depend on your country of residence and the legal entity that services the account. Before registering, it is worth understanding which legal entity will open your account, and verifying this on the official website.
Verification is not just a single upload of a scan. It usually involves three stages: collecting personal data during registration, identity verification, and, if necessary, address verification. The system may request a re-upload if a scan is unreadable or data does not match. Automated verification tools compare the data you entered with the document data, so errors in spelling your name or address are a common cause of additional requests. Verification may be conducted both before the first deposit and at the withdrawal stage; the exact moment depends on jurisdiction rules and account type.
Practical example (hypothetical): you registered as "Иван Петров" but your passport shows "IVAN PETROV". Even if these are different alphabets, the system may not match the data automatically and may request manual review. In this case, it is advisable to enter your name in Latin characters exactly as in the document, if the registration form allows it.

Which documents are usually accepted
The official source on identification names three categories for identity confirmation. It is important that the document is valid and that the data in it matches the information you provided during registration.
| Verification type | What the official source states | Limitation |
|---|---|---|
| Identity | Valid passport, national identity card, or driver's license | The exact request is displayed in FxPro Direct and may differ |
| Address | A document with name and address, dated within the last six months | May be requested, not always mandatory |
The table reflects only what is confirmed by the official source. This guide does not claim that a specific country, citizenship, or document type guarantees approval. A practical guideline is to compare your document data with your registration data: discrepancies often lead to additional requests.
Practical example (hypothetical): you uploaded a utility bill for address verification, but it is dated eight months ago. The official requirement is a document no older than six months, so the bill may be rejected. In that case, a more recent document will be required.
If a document contains multiple pages, the page with the photo and data is usually required, as well as the page with the address (if the address is stated in the passport). Scans must be in color, well-lit, and free of glare. Editing the image is not recommended: any changes may be considered forgery.

Where to upload documents
According to the official description, documents can be uploaded through several points: during registration, through the "My Profile / Upload Documents" section in FxPro Direct, or through the account area in the app. The choice of specific path depends on what stage you are at and which interface is available to you.
Important: this guide does not collect or accept identity documents, does not store passwords, and does not process KYC materials. All uploads are performed only on official FxPro resources. If you are asked to upload documents on a third-party website or via a message in a messenger other than official channels, that is a reason to check the address and security policy.
You should not disable security software to upload documents. If the official website does not open, it is more reasonable to check your connection and contact support through official channels than to lower your device's security level.
Technical file requirements: JPEG, PNG, or PDF formats are usually accepted. File size may be limited (e.g., up to 5 MB). If the file is too large, it can be compressed without losing readability. Do not upload multiple documents in one file if the system requests separate fields for each type.
Practical example (hypothetical): you try to upload a photo of your passport taken with your phone, but the file is 8 MB and fails. The solution is to reduce the resolution or use a compression program while keeping the text and photo readable.

How to check verification status
Status can be checked in your FxPro Direct account or in the app's account area. The official source states that document requests are displayed there as well, so the account area is the main reference point, not third-party messages.
What is useful to check yourself:
- whether the name and address in the uploaded documents match your registration data;
- whether the document is current at the time of verification;
- whether the scan or photo is readable, with document edges and key fields visible;
- whether the identity document has expired.
If the status does not change and there are no requests in your account, you cannot assume specific verification times: the official source does not publish universal timelines in the available description, and this guide does not invent them. For clarification, contact support through official channels.
The account area usually displays the current status: "Under review", "Additional information required", "Verified", or "Rejected". If the status is "Rejected", a reason may be shown next to it. Read it carefully and address the specified issues.
Practical example (hypothetical): you uploaded documents, but the status remains "Under review" for more than a week. Before contacting support, check whether there was a request for additional documents that you missed. If there is no request, write to support via the official chat in your account, providing your account number.

Country of residence and legal entity
Eligibility for services depends on your country of residence and the legal entity that maintains the account. FxPro's official legal information states that services and products depend on the country of residence and the organization servicing the account; among the restrictions, the USA, Iran, and Canada are named. This list may be incomplete and should be checked in its current form on the official website.
The Russian language of the interface or guide is a language, not a confirmation of service availability in Russia. The same applies to French and Spanish: the existence of a language version does not guarantee access in France or Spain. The user must verify the jurisdiction and legal entity before registering.
Practical step: before creating an account, open the legal information section on the official website and make sure which entity will be named in your contract. This affects further terms, including verification requirements.
Different legal entities may impose different requirements for the minimum deposit, leverage, and available instruments. For example, European regulated entities typically restrict leverage for retail clients, while offshore entities may offer higher leverage. These differences are not a guarantee. check the current terms for the entity you have chosen.
Practical example (hypothetical): you live in a country not listed in the restrictions, but your citizenship is one of the listed countries. In that case, access may be restricted by citizenship rather than place of residence. Clarify this point with support before registering.

Demo account, limitations, and risks
A demo account uses virtual funds and is intended for learning. The official source emphasizes that demo account results do not indicate future results on a real account. Verification for a demo account may differ from verification for a real one. this guide does not claim otherwise.
CFD trading involves risk. No guarantees of profitability, "risk-free trading", or fixed results are described in this material. Exact commissions, swaps, and leverage parameters depend on the instrument, account type, and legal entity, so they should be verified against official specifications.
Different sections of the official website may diverge: for example, outdated cTrader for Mac FAQ pages may not match the current product page. In such cases, rely on the most recent source and note discrepancies explicitly, rather than choosing the convenient version.
A demo account can be useful for testing strategies without the risk of losing real funds. However, the psychological perception of trading with virtual money differs from real trading. Do not draw conclusions about profitability based on demo results.
Practical example (hypothetical): you traded on a demo account with 1:500 leverage and made a profit. On a real account for your jurisdiction, leverage may be limited to 1:30, which will change your portfolio's volatility and margin requirements. Always check the current parameters for your account type.
