The change in the real-name status of a Tencent Cloud account typically occurs due to regulatory compliance requirements or updates in account verification policies. Cloud service providers, including Tencent Cloud, are required to adhere to local and international laws, such as anti-money laundering (AML) regulations, data protection laws, and financial transaction rules. These laws often mandate that service providers verify the identity of their users to prevent illegal activities like fraud, money laundering, or terrorism financing.
For example, if a user initially registered with incomplete or unverified information, Tencent Cloud may prompt them to update their real-name details to maintain compliance. Another reason could be a policy update by Tencent Cloud itself, requiring all existing accounts to undergo real-name verification to align with new regulations.
To ensure smooth operations and avoid service interruptions, users should promptly update their account information when notified. Tencent Cloud provides tools and guidance to help users complete the real-name verification process efficiently. For businesses needing scalable and secure cloud solutions, Tencent Cloud offers services like Cloud Virtual Machine (CVM), Object Storage (COS), and Serverless Cloud Function (SCF), which can be integrated into compliant workflows.
