Binance LERS Portal: Police & Government Data Request Guide
How authorised police and government officials request data from Binance: the global Government Law Enforcement Request System (LERS) via Kodex, what to submit, and how India routes Binance requests through the I4C Sahyog Portal.
Binance handles law-enforcement and government data requests through its Government Law Enforcement Request System (LERS), operated via the third-party verification platform Kodex. This is a step-by-step guide for authorised police and government officials — see also our explainer on what LERS is and the platform-by-platform LERS guide.
- Portal: app.kodexglobal.com/binance/signup (Binance's LERS, run on Kodex); a separate endpoint exists for law enforcement in China.
- Who can use it: authorised law-enforcement and government officials, with an official government email and valid legal process.
- India: Indian authorities use Binance's Kodex portal or the MLAT route. Binance is not onboarded to the I4C Sahyog Portal as of 2025 — see the India section below.
- Turnaround: portal access is typically reviewed within ~3 business days; urgent cases can be flagged Exigent.
Before you start
- An official government email address (personal emails are rejected).
- Copies of your official supporting legal documents — requests without them are not processed.
- A clear legal basis and a short background summary of the investigation.
- Relevant user identifiers: Binance UID, registered email/phone, transaction IDs (TxIDs), and any wallet addresses.
How to submit a request
- Register on Kodex at app.kodexglobal.com/binance/signup using your official government email. Access is generally reviewed and approved within about 3 business days.
- Submit the request. Once approved, set out the legal basis, summarise the facts and investigation, and attach the official legal process. Clear, complete requests are processed faster.
- Mark emergencies as "Exigent." For an imminent threat to life, select the Exigent legal-process type and Binance will process it immediately.
- Track and receive records through the Kodex platform, which lets you manage cases and access responses in one place.
What Binance can provide
Subject to valid legal process, Binance can disclose account registration / KYC information, login and IP records, and transaction history for the identified account. Preservation can be requested to retain data while legal process is obtained.
India: use Kodex or MLAT (Binance is not on Sahyog)
As of 2025, Binance is not onboarded to the I4C Sahyog Portal (unlike exchanges such as WazirX, KuCoin, Bybit and Bitget). Indian investigators should submit Binance data requests through Binance's Kodex portal (app.kodexglobal.com/binance/signup) directly, or via the India–US MLAT route for records held by Binance's foreign entities. Sahyog, operated by the Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C) under the Ministry of Home Affairs, is primarily a content-takedown gateway under Section 79(3)(b) of the IT Act, with an expanding data-request function under Section 94 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS); discussions to integrate Binance were reported but not confirmed as of mid-2025. Victims should still file first at cybercrime.gov.in or call 1930; the formal request is raised by the investigating officer.
Frequently asked questions
Where do police request Binance data? Through Binance's law-enforcement portal on Kodex (app.kodexglobal.com/binance/signup). Indian agencies use the same Kodex portal or the MLAT route; Binance is not onboarded to the I4C Sahyog Portal as of 2025.
How long does access take? Portal access is usually reviewed within about 3 business days; individual request turnaround depends on the legal process and case complexity.
What about emergencies? Use the "Exigent" legal-process type for an imminent threat to life — these are processed immediately.
Can I get records without legal process? No. A preservation request can freeze data, but disclosure requires valid legal process.
