When I try to add my LEI I get the error "Validation failed"

The most common reasons why an LEI "Validation failed" error appears are:

  • You already requested the creation of an LEI and your request is still pending; or
  • The LEI entered is invalid or has lapsed.

You can contact IBKR Client Services via ticket if you need more support with this procedure. Please select Account Services as the ticket category followed by Regulatory and type "LEI Validation Failed" as the subject.
