Your Quotex trader ID is a unique, permanent number assigned to your account, found under Profile > Account settings, near your registered email and name. "Document number" is a separate thing entirely. It's a field that appears during identity verification (KYC), and it refers to the number printed on whatever ID document you're uploading: your passport number, national ID card number, or driver's licence number. This guide covers where to find each one and why they get confused.

What Is the Quotex Trader ID?

The trader ID (sometimes called an account ID) is a number Quotex assigns automatically when you register, and it stays fixed for the life of your account. It has nothing to do with your name, email, or any document. It's simply how the platform's internal systems reference your specific account.

To find it: log into Quotex, go to your Profile, then Account settings. The ID typically displays near your registered email address and username. Screenshot or note it down once you find it, since you'll be asked for it more often than you'd expect: usually during a support ticket, or by a P2P exchanger who needs to know exactly which account to credit after a deposit.

You do not need to memorize it or carry it anywhere physically. It's an account-lookup number, not a credential. Sharing it doesn't expose your login or password, though sharing your actual login details is a different matter and something you should never do regardless of who's asking.


What Is "Document Number" in Quotex Verification?

This term shows up on the KYC (identity verification) form, not on your account profile, and it's a source of real confusion because the phrasing is generic rather than Quotex-specific. When you're asked for a "document number" during verification, the platform is asking for the number printed on whichever government-issued ID you're uploading:

  • Passport: the passport number, typically found on the photo page
  • National ID card: the ID card number printed on the card itself
  • Driver's licence: the licence number

This is standard practice across identity verification forms generally, not something unique to Quotex's process. Most KYC systems ask you to type in the document's printed number alongside uploading a photo of the document itself, as a way of cross-checking that the number on the image matches what you've entered.

We were not able to find a published, Quotex-specific description of exactly how this field is labelled or used inside its own KYC flow. Quotex doesn't publish detailed internal documentation of its verification screens, and third-party guides don't specify this particular field either. We're saying so directly rather than guessing at platform specifics we can't confirm. The safest approach: enter the number exactly as it's printed on your ID, matching the document you're uploading in the same step, and make sure that number and the name on your account are consistent with each other.


Why These Two Get Mixed Up

Both are "numbers associated with your account" in a loose sense, which is enough to blur them in casual conversation or in search queries. But they come from entirely different sources and serve entirely different purposes:

  • The trader ID is generated by Quotex the moment you register. It exists purely to identify your account inside Quotex's own system.
  • The document number is printed on a physical ID issued by a government, entirely independent of Quotex. It exists to identify you as a person, and it would be the same number whether or not you'd ever heard of Quotex.

There's no scenario where these two numbers are meant to match, and no reason to expect they would.


Practical Tips

  • Note your trader ID once, early. Find it in Profile > Account settings and keep it somewhere you can reference quickly. Support tickets and some deposit-exchanger conversations move faster when you have it ready.
  • Use consistent name spelling. Whatever name is on your document should match your registered Quotex account name closely; mismatches are one of the most common reasons verification gets delayed. See our verification guide for the fuller list of rejection reasons and how to avoid them.
  • Double-check the document number against the image you upload. If the typed number and the printed number on the photo don't match exactly, expect the submission to be rejected and flagged for resubmission.
  • Never confuse either of these with your password. Neither the trader ID nor a document number functions as a login credential, but that doesn't mean either should be shared casually outside of legitimate support or verification contexts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where do I find my Quotex trader ID?

Log in, go to Profile > Account settings. Your trader ID (account ID) is displayed there, typically near your registered email and username.

What is "document number" asking for on Quotex?

It's asking for the number printed on the government-issued ID you're uploading for verification: your passport number, national ID card number, or driver's licence number, depending on which document you choose.

Is my trader ID the same as my document number?

No. Your trader ID is generated by Quotex and tied only to your account. Your document number is printed on a physical government ID and has nothing to do with Quotex at all.

Does my trader ID ever change?

No, it's assigned once at registration and stays fixed for the life of the account.

Do I need my trader ID to contact support?

It helps significantly. Support and some deposit intermediaries use it to locate your specific account quickly, rather than relying only on your email or name.

What happens if I enter the wrong document number during verification?

It's a common reason a submission gets rejected. Double-check that the number you type matches exactly what's printed on the document image you're uploading, then resubmit if needed. You don't need to open a new account to correct it.

Is it safe to share my trader ID with someone helping me deposit?

Sharing the trader ID itself carries no login risk, since it isn't a credential. Never share your account password or verification codes with anyone, including a deposit exchanger, regardless of what they claim they need it for.
