Withdrawals were fully restored following a phased reopening that began with Bitcoin (BTC) on September 28, 2026. On October 17, 2026, Bitget announced a one-off service termination for users in specific regions due to regulatory compliance, with individual withdrawal deadlines sent via personal notifications.
