The XM country-specific deposit bonus is broadly available in many Asian, African, Latin American, Middle Eastern and non-EU markets, but not to EU/UK retail clients, the United States, Canada or restricted jurisdictions.
Direct answer
The XM country-specific deposit bonus is offered through XM Global Limited (FSC Belize), which serves most of Asia, Africa, Latin America, the Middle East and other non-EU markets — over 190 countries are listed in XM's broader country list, and the majority of those have access to the bonus. The bonus is not available to retail clients in the EU/EEA (ESMA promotion rules), the UK (FCA), Australia (ASIC), the United States, Canada, Iran, North Korea, Syria, or other sanctioned jurisdictions. The signup form and your country selection on KYC are the final authority — if the bonus button does not appear in your Members Area after verification, you are not eligible from your country.

Confirm your eligibility in 4 steps
Open the XM signup form
Pick your country of residence. If XM does not let you proceed at this stage, your country is not supported at all — bonus or otherwise.
Note the entity assigned to you
The signup confirms which entity will hold your account. Only XM Global Limited (FSC Belize) and certain regional entities offer the $30 bonus — CySEC and ASIC entities do not.
Complete KYC with truthful country data
Use your real residence address. Trying to mask jurisdiction with a VPN or false address is the fastest way to have the bonus deleted later — KYC will eventually catch the mismatch.
Look for the bonus card after verification
If your country is eligible, the current bonus card appears in the Members Area once status is Verified. If it does not appear, your country is excluded for that entity or promotion.
Common mistakes about bonus eligibility
- Assuming "XM is global" means the bonus is available everywhere — the bonus follows the entity, not the brand.
- Using a VPN to register from a restricted jurisdiction; KYC documents will reveal the real country and the bonus will be removed.
- Confusing country support with bonus support — XM may serve your country but not offer the $30 there.
- Acting on outdated lists from 2022/2023; jurisdictions have shifted multiple times since then.
- Treating screenshots from another country's Members Area as proof of eligibility for your own.
