Perpetual Futures by Country
Check whether perpetual futures are available in your country, which restrictions may apply and which platforms residents can use.
Availability Depends on More Than Your Location
A platform may be accessible from a country without being locally regulated or authorized to offer perpetual futures there.
Access can depend on residency, account entity, verification status, professional classification and the specific product being traded. A decentralized exchange may be technically reachable through a wallet while still presenting legal, regulatory, interface or sanctions-related restrictions.
What Each Country Guide Checks
- Whether perpetual futures are available to retail users and how the product is classified.
- The main financial regulator, derivatives restrictions and KYC requirements.
- Platforms accepting residents, offshore and decentralized-exchange access, deposits, withdrawals, geo-blocking and VPN risks.
- Relevant tax considerations, official sources and the last verification date.
Understand the Status Before Opening an Account
“Accessible,” “regulated,” “authorized” and “legal” do not mean the same thing. Check product access and registration policies separately before opening an account.
