Egypt · Licence coverage
Is OANDA regulated in Egypt?
The short answer
On the evidence we hold: no. OANDA is matched to a licence on official registers, and none of them records cover for Egypt. A licence held elsewhere regulates the firm where it was issued; it does not extend supervision, complaints handling or compensation to a client in Egypt.
Investfora publishes what registers say. Nothing on this page is a recommendation, and we do not tell anyone what to do with their money.

Register entry 542574 ('OANDA Europe Limited') has a status we don't recognise; routed to manual review rather than guessed.
The licences, and what they cover
No evidence of cover for Egypt
| Regulator | Licence | Entity on the register | Register status | Fetched |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Financial Conduct Authority | 542574 | OANDA Europe Limited | Status not recognised |
- This Financial Conduct Authority licence does not, on the evidence of the register itself, extend to Egypt. A licence issued by Financial Conduct Authority regulates the entity in its home jurisdiction; it does not by itself make the broker supervised in Egypt, and Egypt's local protections or compensation schemes will generally not apply.
Coverage is read from the register record itself and nowhere else. Where a register does not record cover for Egypt, we say we have no evidence of it — not that cover is impossible. The distinction matters, and we will not collapse it.
Regulation in Egypt
The local authority is Financial Regulatory Authority (FRA). Whether a firm may deal with clients in Egypt, and on what terms, is that authority’s question, not a question a foreign licence answers. Investfora does not currently query the Financial Regulatory Authority (FRA) register directly; the registers we do read are listed on our methodology page, along with the ones that block us.
