How to Generate and Download Your Kraken Account Statement
If you hold cryptocurrency on Kraken or Kraken Pro and are applying for a mortgage or financial product, you may need to provide an official account statement showing your balances, transactions, and overall portfolio value. Kraken makes this process straightforward through its Document Center, where you can generate both real-time and pre-generated reports for your account.
This guide walks you through how to generate your Kraken account statement, what to include, and how to securely download and share it when requested by a lender, CPA, or financial advisor.
What Is the Kraken Document Center?
The Document Center is a centralized area within both the Kraken and Kraken Pro web platforms where you can create and download various account-related reports. These include:
- Account Documents: Summaries of account activity across a specific date range
- Exports: Custom files you generate with specific filters (like deposits, withdrawals, trades, and more)
Statements from Kraken are commonly used for record-keeping, audits, mortgage applications, and tax preparation. They are available as PDFs or CSV files and typically remain available for 14 days after generation.
When You Might Need a Kraken Statement
Mortgage underwriters or financial institutions may request a Kraken account statement to verify the existence and value of your crypto assets. This documentation can support:
- Down payment sourcing
- Asset reserve requirements
- Net worth validation
- Proof of income from trading or staking
Because Kraken allows you to select a custom date range and filter by transaction types, it’s easy to tailor your statement to exactly what’s needed.
