Document verification usually takes a few minutes. In times of increased activity, this time may be extended to several hours.

If all documents are correctly verified, the contract will be activated, about which you will be informed by e-mail.

🚩 Identity documents must be submitted via the online form.

In the event of positive verification of documents and failure to open the contract within 24 hours, please contact the Customer Service Department at cs@xtb.com
