How we verify these restrictions Every firm on this page publishes a country restriction that names China. We read those restrictions from the firm's own website — its terms of service, country policy, or signup disclaimer — rather than from a third-party list. Last reviewed August 2026. Two things are worth knowing about how to read this page. First, it is a floor rather than a complete picture: many firms word their restrictions as covering a named list and other territories besides, so a firm may enforce restrictions it does not publish. Second, a firm's absence from this page means only that we have not verified a China restriction for it — it is not confirmation that the firm accepts Chinese traders. Confirm your eligibility with the firm before paying for a challenge. These 7 firms are not singling China out. Each one excludes an average of 49 countries, and all of them also restrict Afghanistan, Belarus and Cuba — the same blanket list that appears across most of the industry. 73 of the firms we track accept Chinese traders. ## Frequently Asked Questions Almost always for commercial and compliance reasons rather than anything to do with the traders themselves. The decision usually comes from the firm's payment processor, its broker or liquidity provider, or its own anti-fraud and KYC screening — each of which can refuse a jurisdiction independently of the firm's own preference. That is also why the restriction lists differ so widely between firms: they reflect different processors and different risk appetites, not a shared industry judgement. No, and it is a bad trade. Signing up from a restricted country breaches the terms you agree to at checkout, and residency is verified at KYC and again at payout — not at signup. The usual outcome is not a blocked registration but a passed challenge followed by a denied payout and a closed account, with the challenge fee gone. If a firm restricts you, use one that does not. No. Some restrictions are scoped rather than firm-wide. A firm may restrict a country on one entity or one vertical — its futures arm but not its CFD arm, for example — or only on a particular payment method. Where a firm runs more than one brand, each is listed separately here, so check the specific entity you are signing up to against its own terms. It reflects each firm's published terms as last reviewed, and the review date is stated above. Firms change country policy without announcement, and a change to a payment processor can move a country on or off a list overnight. Treat this page as a starting point and confirm on the firm's own site before you pay. ## Structured data ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "WebSite", "name": "Propfirmbook", "url": "https://propfirmbook.com", "description": "Compare the best prop trading firms in 2026.
