• Countries where the Broker has chosen not to operate

Common restricted jurisdictions include but are not limited to: United States (for many CFD brokerlar), Iran, North Korea, Syria, Cuba, Crimea, certain provinces of Quebec, and countries on financial sanctions lists. The exact list varies by Broker entity and changes over time.

3. ShaFX cashback eligibility

4. Regional notices

Many global CFD and forex brokerlar do not accept US clients. ShaFX does not piyasa services as a US-regulated Broker or registered investment adviser. US persons should consult a registered financial professional and use NFA / CFTC-regulated entities where applicable.

European Union & United Kingdom

Retail CFD işlem in the EU and UK is subject to ESMA / FCA leverage caps, negative-balance protection, and standardised risk warnings. ShaFX recommends only using brokerlar regulated by FCA, CySEC, BaFin, or other ESMA-aligned regulators when residing in these jurisdictions.

United Arab Emirates

UAE residents should use brokerlar authorised by the UAE Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA), DFSA (DIFC), or FSRA (ADGM) where applicable.

Regions Without Domestic CFD Regulation

In jurisdictions where there is no domestic forex/CFD regulator, yatırımcılar typically transact through internationally regulated brokerlar operating under offshore or third-country entities. ShaFX provides educational İçerik for yatırımcılar worldwide but does not endorse any specific Broker entity for any specific country. Always verify Broker licensing, deposit and withdrawal channels, and local banking and tax compliance independently before opening an hesap.

Saudi Arabia

The Saudi Capital piyasa Authority (CMA) regulates licensed entities. Use of unlicensed offshore brokerlar may be subject to local restrictions. Confirm Broker licensing before opening an hesap.
