Most “RoboForex review” pages repeat what the broker says about itself. We did something simpler and more useful: on 22 October 2026 we looked up each RoboForex company on the regulators’ own public registers. Below is what we could verify, what we could not, and what it means for a trader in Asia.
RoboForex licences we verified
| Regulator | Company | Licence / reference | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| CySEC (Cyprus) | Robomarkets Ltd (brand: RoboMarkets) | 191/13 | Listed on the register (checked 15 Oct 2026) |
| FSA (Seychelles) | RoboMarkets Ltd (brand: RoboMarkets) | – | Listed on the register (checked 15 Oct 2026) |
| Belize (company, via LEI) | RoboForex Ltd. | 128572 | Listed on the register (checked 15 Oct 2026) |
Claims we could not verify
These appear on the broker’s own pages or in third-party reviews. We could not confirm them on an official register, so treat them as unverified:
- FSC (Belize): RoboForex Ltd, licence 000138/… (third-party sources give different numbers) (register not reachable or blocking automated checks).
Which company will open your account?
Large broker groups use several companies with different licences. The company that matters is the one named in your client agreement, and that depends mainly on where you live. The RoboForex brand that international traders sign up with is run by RoboForex Ltd, a company in Belize; it exists in the global LEI register, but we could not open the Belize regulator’s register to check its licence. The group’s licences in Cyprus (CySEC) and the Seychelles belong to companies called RoboMarkets, which use the RoboMarkets brand. So the strong-sounding CySEC licence does not cover a RoboForex account. Before depositing, open the client agreement and check that the company name and licence number there match the register.
What the licences mean for your protection
| Regulator | Type | Compensation if the company fails |
|---|---|---|
| CySEC (Cyprus) | EU (Cyprus) | Investor Compensation Fund, up to €20,000 |
| FSA (Seychelles) | Offshore | No comparable compensation scheme |
| Belize (company, via LEI) | Company confirmed in the LEI register; licence not verified by us | Unknown |
Accounts
RoboForex lists these account types: ProCent, Pro, ECN, Prime, R StocksTrader. It offers a cent account, which lets you trade very small sizes; see our cent account guide. It also has a raw-spread account with commission. Spreads and fees change, so compare the current figures on the broker’s site; our guide to trading costs shows what to look at.
Our verdict
RoboForex belongs to a real, long-running group, and its CySEC and Seychelles licences are confirmed, but they belong to RoboMarkets, not to the company most traders in Asia sign up with. RoboForex Ltd in Belize exists, yet its licence number is reported inconsistently and we could not check it. Treat RoboForex as an offshore broker with no compensation scheme: start with the ProCent account, keep deposits modest and test a withdrawal early.
How to check it yourself in five minutes
- Find the company name and licence number in the footer of the broker’s website or in the client agreement.
- Search for that company on the regulator’s own register, not through a link sent by the broker.
- Check that the website address and company name on the register match.
- If anything does not match, treat it as a clone or a scam. Our guide on how to check a broker’s regulation shows each step.
Frequently asked questions
Is RoboForex regulated in my country?
Probably not. Vietnam’s State Bank has not licensed any retail forex broker, and offshore brokers are generally not licensed by Asian regulators. That is why the licence of the company that opens your account matters so much.
Is my money safe with RoboForex?
No broker is risk-free. Your protection depends on the company that holds your account: an FCA or CySEC company is covered by a compensation scheme, an offshore company usually is not. Keep only the money you actively trade with at any broker.
Disclosure: RoboForex is one of the brokers leaksfx may receive a commission from, and our author works with some brokers as an Introducing Broker. That is why we limited this page to facts that can be checked on official registers; see how we review brokers. Forex and CFD trading on margin is high-risk and most retail traders lose money.
