Restricted countries

Elite Trader Funding lists 24 restricted countries.

Afghanistan Central African Republic Congo Cuba DR Congo Guam Guinea Haiti Iran Iraq Libya Mali Myanmar North Korea Puerto Rico Russia Somalia South Sudan Sudan Syria U.S. Virgin Islands Ukraine Venezuela Yemen

List of countries restricted by payout provider Rise (page last verified by the firm 2026-07-30), plus unsupported US territories Guam, Puerto Rico and US Virgin Islands. Also OFAC/US, EU and UK sanctioned countries; eligibility is by residence. Pakistan (PK) is NOT on the restricted list, but PK is also not on the Stripe supported-countries list, and the page says traders whose country is not serviceable by its payment partners cannot purchase or be funded, so PK eligibility is unclear.
