Uniswap (Uniswap Labs interface) review
Uniswap operates as a decentralized exchange, with its primary web application managed by Uniswap Labs, a US company located in New York. Users connect their personal wallets, eliminating the need for accounts or ID verification for swaps. Uniswap Labs logs every connected wallet address, screens it with blockchain analytics providers and blocks addresses under US sanctions. While the interface fee is 0%, users should be aware that pool fees and network gas still apply. In our view, Uniswap suits Ethereum users who accept wallet screening on the official app.

Where you live and the provider's terms
Many services on this page do not serve every country. Some exclude people because of where they live or their citizenship, not only where they connect from. Read the provider's terms before you send funds. If the terms exclude you, do not use the service, and do not try to get around the restriction, for example with a VPN.
Taxes
A service that does not ask for ID does not change your taxes. In the US, the federal income tax return asks a yes-or-no question about digital assets, and you must report digital asset transactions whether or not they result in a gain or loss. In the UK, you may owe Capital Gains Tax when you sell, swap or spend crypto, and you must keep your own records. Rules in other countries differ.
No KYC is not anonymity
"No KYC" here means the provider says it does not ask for ID in the cases its terms describe. It does not make you anonymous. Uniswap (Uniswap Labs interface)'s terms say it can ask for ID in these cases: None for swaps; Certain Continuous Clearing Auctions (token sales) may require identity verification by the token team through third-party services. Regulated exchanges you send funds from or to may have to collect information about who sends and who receives a crypto transfer. Your tax duties stay the same.
Funds can be held
If a provider asks for more information during a swap or a withdrawal, it may hold your funds until it gets it. Its terms decide what happens next. In the UK, a crypto business that asks for information on a transfer to or from a self-custody wallet, and does not receive it, must not pass the funds on. Read what the provider's terms say before you send. Uniswap (Uniswap Labs interface)'s terms say that if a check is requested and not completed: no funds held: a blocked wallet cannot use Uniswap Labs interfaces but keeps its assets; the protocol stays reachable through other interfaces.
