Brokers in Belarus, 2026
Tracked byIndependent review teamUpdated
Belarus runs a domestically-licensed retail forex market — the National Bank of the Republic of Belarus (NBRB) supervises forex companies under a 2014 framework that requires NBRB authorisation for retail FX intermediation. A small group of NBRB-licensed names operate (TeleTrade, MTBank's brokerage arm, Alpari Eurasia historically). Following 2022 sanctions, international banking access has been severely constrained; most retail FX activity now routes through stablecoins and third-country corridors.

Personal income tax is a flat 13% for residents on most income types. Capital gains on financial instruments fall under personal income unless from licensed Belarusian securities held over specific terms. Foreign brokers do not withhold; income is self-declared via the MNS (Ministry of Taxes and Duties) annual return.
NBRB-licensed brokers operate under domestic leverage rules; offshore brokers serving Belarusian residents apply their own limits. Most major international brokers list Belarus as restricted due to OFAC, EU and UK sanctions screening; KYC commonly fails. Cross-border BYN transfers face de facto and de jure constraints; USDT has become the practical funding rail.
