Licensed firms only

Binary options in Japan: only licensed local firms

In Japan only firms licensed by the FSA may offer binary options. None of the platforms we review has that licence, so we recommend none of them here.

Reason:: Japan's FSA allows binary options only through locally registered firms with strict rules; the offshore platforms we cover are not registered.
Regulator:: Financial Services Agency (FSA)

Questions from Japan

Can you legally trade binary options in Japan?

Only firms licensed by the FSA. None of the platforms we review holds that licence.

Is there a regulated alternative in Japan?

We can't confirm a regulated alternative in Japan right now.

What if I use a VPN from Japan?

Platforms check your ID and address before paying anything out. A VPN breaks their terms and can cost you the account and the money in it.
