About FSA (Seychelles)

FSA (Seychelles) is an authority in Seychelles. We have confirmed responsibility for licensing, consumer information, but its precise role in supervising retail forex and CFD providers requires review of the relevant licence and legal entity.

Issues Securities Dealer licences used by many brokers for their international entity. Supervision is light and there is no compensation scheme.

The FSA's Securities Dealer licence is the most common offshore licence on the database.

Registration with an authority is not always equivalent to prudential supervision or permission to provide leveraged trading services. Review the exact licence category, permissions and status.

How to complain about a FSA (Seychelles)-regulated broker

Start with the legal entity shown on your account agreement. The complaint route depends on whether that entity is licensed, whether the service falls within the licence and whether you meet the relevant eligibility rules.

  1. Confirm the broker brand, legal entity, website and licence number.
  2. Submit a formal written complaint to the broker and retain the reference number and evidence.
  3. Check the authority's official complaint guidance and the firm's register entry.
  4. Escalate to the eligible ombudsman, dispute body, compensation arrangement or authority route.
  5. Report suspected crime, impersonation or unauthorised activity to the appropriate public authority.

We have not confirmed a public complaint-submission route for this authority. Check the official website and the broker's governing documents.
