Products and verification
HTX documentation covers spot trading, contracts, P2P and Earn products. Access conditions must be checked for each product. A feature appearing in a menu does not establish availability for an individual account.
The HTX KYC guide distinguishes verification stages covering personal information, identity documents and facial recognition.
Earlier claims that users can trade freely without identity checks should not be treated as a universal rule.
Old Huobi withdrawal limits, fees, management lists and bonuses are not current without separate confirmation. Check the official HTX website for account terms.
UK sanctions
The United Kingdom designated Huobi Global S.A. on 26 May 2026.
OFSI FAQ 186 states that HTX is subject to UK financial sanctions because it is owned by Huobi.
This is a material restriction, separate from an announcement that the exchange has closed globally. Eligibility to use HTX depends on applicable rules, the user's jurisdiction and platform terms.
