  Hey there! So, Coinbase has different verification levels for its users. The basic level requires you to provide your full name, date of birth, and address. Once you've completed this step, you can start buying and selling cryptocurrencies. But if you want to level up and access more advanced features, you'll need to provide additional documents. These might include a photo ID, proof of address, and sometimes even a selfie. Coinbase wants to make sure everything is legit and secure, so they have these verification checks in place. The time it takes to get verified can vary, but they usually try to process applications as quickly as possible. Just keep in mind that the verification process might be slightly different depending on where you're located.
