What KuCoin announced
On October 29, 2026, KuCoin announced that it would immediately discontinue services for users in Russia and Belarus because of applicable legal and regulatory requirements. The announcement covers every product, service and feature of the exchange.
The exchange describes an orderly termination process allowing affected users to close positions and withdraw assets. The announcement does not set a single withdrawal deadline for everyone.
How to find the deadlines for your account
Affected accounts will receive notices with the applicable deadlines and instructions. KuCoin directs users who need clarification about their account status to its official support.
KuCoin says no action is required if you have not received a notice; your account remains subject to its terms and applicable restrictions. This does not promise indefinite service or confirm admission for new clients.
Who the announcement concerns
KuCoin refers to users in Russia and Belarus. The announcement alone does not establish a ban on every Russian or Belarusian citizen living in another country.
