How to trade spot with OKX in Canada (2025)

Taxes differ by jurisdiction. In Canada, keep a record of every transaction you make while you trade spot: date, amount, fee, and counterparty. Most local tax offices accept a simple spreadsheet.

Security comes before convenience. Enable two-factor authentication, review active sessions, and make sure the email and phone attached to the account are ones you control in Canada.
