Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a license to start a forex brokerage? +

Yes. Operating without a license can lead to shutdowns, blocked payments, or legal action. A license builds trust, opens bank accounts, and legitimizes your operations.

What are the best jurisdictions for Forex licensing? +

It depends on your needs. Popular options include Dubai (VARA), Seychelles, Mauritius, BVI, Cyprus (CySEC), Saint Lucia, and Comoros. We help you compare options.

How much does it cost to get licensed? +

Costs vary widely. Offshore jurisdictions may start around $10,000, while EU or UAE licenses can exceed $50,000–$100,000. We provide full cost breakdowns up front.

What documents do I need for the application? +

Generally: business plan, corporate documents, ID/residency proof of directors, proof of funds, compliance policies, and background checks. We help compile and prepare all of it.

How long does licensing take? +

Timeframes vary — offshore licenses can take 4–8 weeks, while regulated markets like Cyprus or Dubai may take 3–6 months.

Yes. Many brokers start offshore and later add onshore licenses. We handle multi-country applications and ensure each meets local compliance standards.

Typically includes regulatory filings, KYC/AML reporting, capital adequacy, annual audits, and ongoing compliance officer oversight. We help set up systems for this.

Can Rotex help me pass audits or regulatory reviews? +
