Sanctions & restricted jurisdictions
Where Fiat Swap's providers won't transact, the sanctions lists they screen against, and who actually enforces this. This page complements our terms of service and AML & KYC statement.
Comprehensively sanctioned jurisdictions
Our providers do not offer service to users located in, or ordinarily resident in:
- Cuba
- Iran
- North Korea (Democratic People's Republic of Korea)
- Syria
- The Crimea region (Russian-occupied territory of Ukraine)
- The Donetsk and Luhansk regions (Russian-occupied territories of Ukraine)
These reflect the comprehensive sanctions programs maintained by the EU, UN, UK, and US. The list above is not exhaustive — a provider may restrict additional jurisdictions under its own risk policies, and that can change without notice on our end.
Who actually enforces this
Fiat Swap doesn't. We don't hold funds, execute transactions, or act as a party to the deal you make with a provider, so we don't run our own sanctions or watchlist screening, and the comparison tool itself isn't gated by country. Sanctions and jurisdiction screening is performed by whichever provider — currently MoonPay or Transak — you choose to transact with, as part of their own KYC/AML program, at the point you enter their checkout. A user in a restricted jurisdiction will be declined there, regardless of what a quote on Fiat Swap showed beforehand.
