NonKYC.io review
NonKYC.io is a centralized exchange where you can trade without giving personal information or going through verification. It supports Monero and enables shielded Sapling withdrawals for Zcash. Although accounts remain custodial, an AML officer monitors unusual deposits and withdrawals. Withdrawals exceeding a certain fast withdraw maximum, which NonKYC.io does not disclose, wait for administrator review, and accounts may face restrictions during investigations of suspicious activity. In our view, it fits small crypto-to-crypto trades, not large balances left on the exchange.
No ID, by design
NonKYC.io never asks for ID by design, per its own pages.

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. NonKYC.io's terms say it can ask for ID in these cases: No ID triggers named. Account restrictions for suspicious or potentially fraudulent activity or during an active investigation; monitoring of unusual deposits and withdrawals; high-risk assets need extra confirmations before withdrawal. 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. NonKYC.io's terms say that if a check is requested and not completed: account restriction: the user may be unable to trade or withdraw while suspicious activity is investigated; resolution only via support ticket. NonKYC says it has helped scam victims reclaim funds. No ID or refund procedure is described.
