How do I know if my country is restricted by a prop firm?

Use the search bar or browse the restricted country list. Each page shows verified firms that currently do not accept traders from that country.

Why are some countries restricted by prop firms?

Restrictions may be due to regulations, broker partnerships, sanctions, or payment provider limitations that affect certain countries.

Do restrictions change over time?

Yes. Prop firms may update their eligibility rules as laws, broker agreements, or payment systems change. Check back regularly for updates.

What should I do if my country is restricted?

Start by reviewing firms that specifically allow traders from your country. Our platform provides accurate comparisons so you can find firms that match your location, trading goals, and preferred instruments.

Do all firms restrict the same countries?

No. Restrictions vary from firm to firm. Some may allow your country while others do not, which is why comparison is essential.

Do restrictions apply to both the challenge and funded accounts?

Yes. If a firm restricts your country, you typically cannot start a challenge or hold a funded account. Always check phase-specific rules.

What proof of residency do prop firms require?

Most firms run KYC checks for compliance. You may be asked for a government-issued ID and recent proof of address (for example, a utility bill or bank statement). Make sure to check the firm's KYC policy.

Can I use a VPN to bypass country restrictions?

No. VPN use to misrepresent location usually violates firm terms and can lead to account closure and forfeited payouts.
