E8 Markets
Not available: E8 One / E8 Zero - Bangladesh, Taiwan, VietNam. Countries listed above can purchase only E8 Pro and E8 Signature accounts. Country is determined by the KYC verification document provided, not by physical location or IP. Even where a challenge account can be purchased, a payout depends on completing KYC with E8's third-party payout processors (WorkMarket, Rise); if a trader cannot be onboarded by either, no payout can be issued regardless of purchase eligibility.

Separately, legal US residents ARE accepted, except residents of five US states: Arkansas, Delaware, Louisiana, Montana and South Carolina (state-level, not representable as a country code). A narrower list of countries is barred only from progressing to a Live Funded Account (they can still hold Sim-Funded Accounts and receive payouts): Algeria, Benin, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Botswana, Bulgaria, Cameroon, Congo (Democratic Republic), Croatia, Ethiopia, Haiti, Lebanon, Malta, Mauritius, Mongolia, Montenegro, Morocco, Mozambique, Nepal, Nigeria, North Macedonia, Pakistan, Panama, Philippines, Qatar, Romania, Senegal, Serbia, Slovenia, South Africa, Tanzania, Trinidad and Tobago, Turkey, Uganda, Zambia, Zimbabwe.

My Funded Futures
Traders traveling to a restricted country may still execute trades there but cannot purchase new accounts or reset existing ones during their stay. The table also lists 'Crimea' and 'France Metro (FX)', neither of which maps to a distinct ISO 3166-1 country code, so they are not included in the coded list above.

Canada (outside Ontario) and Germany: citizens/residents may pass the evaluation but are restricted to Funded Sim indefinitely, not eligible for Funded Live. Ukraine: new users currently cannot onboard with Riseworks; existing Ukrainian users may withdraw in crypto only.

Trading from Vietnam: questions

Which futures prop firms accept traders from Vietnam?

8 of the 20 live futures prop firms we track do not list Vietnam as restricted, and 12 do. The accepting firms are listed above, each with a help center link. Confirm on the firm's own site before you buy, because restricted lists change without notice.

Can I get paid out if I live in Vietnam?

Buying and getting paid are separate checks. Firms verify your identity before the first payout, and their payout partner has to support your country. Being missing from a restricted list is a good sign, not a promise, so read the payout page of the firm you choose.

Can I use a VPN to trade from Vietnam?

A VPN will not change the country a firm assigns you. That comes from the identity documents you upload at verification. A VPN can also break a firm's own VPN rule and put the account at risk, so trade from where you live and pick a firm that accepts you.

Why do some firms show such a short restricted list?

Some firms publish only a handful of countries, usually sanctioned ones, and deal with the rest at verification. 1 of the firms above are flagged for this. A short list is probably incomplete, so check the help center before paying.

Which firm should I pick if I live in Vietnam?

Start with the total cost, then check how fast each firm pays. The true cost calculator adds codes, activation and resets for every live firm, and the payout speed board ranks them by days to first payout. Both use live data, so the order updates as firms change prices and codes.

Is it legal to join a prop firm from Vietnam?

We cannot give legal advice. Local rules on trading income, foreign companies and tax differ by country, and they are your responsibility. Check what applies where you live, keep a record of every payout for your tax return, and ask a local accountant if you are unsure.

How often does this list change?

Firms can change their terms at any time, and we update our data when we notice. The page refreshes from that data every few minutes. The firm's own help center always wins over ours, which is why each firm above links to it.

What if a firm refuses me but is not on this list?

Trust the firm. Its help center and support team have the final word, and our list only reflects what firms publish. If you find a mismatch for Vietnam, tell us through the contact page so we can correct it for the next trader.
