Steps to apply for a Comoros Forex License in 2026
Step 1: First meeting and evaluation of business models
- Tetra Consultants will start with an initial consultation to assess your forex-brokerage model, target markets, and product line-up. The legal licensing specialists will evaluate your need for an offshore brokerage/clearing license, or any other Comoros Forex License, and determine if your business activities fit within the scope of the license you intend to obtain. The first analysis helps to customize your corporate structure and documentation.
Step 2: Choosing the right structure of a Comoros legal entity
- You should be registered as a legal entity in your destination country to be eligible for obtaining a Comoros Forex License. You can become a legal entity by creating an International Business Company (IBC). Tetra Consultants will provide you with recommendations on how many directors and shareholders you need, and if you require any nominees.
Step 3: Registration of offshore companies in Comoros
- Your International Business Company (IBC) will be registered at the Comoros authorities, and a company name will be obtained for you. Our company will organize the preparation of the memorandum and articles of association. In cooperation with the registered agent in the country, we will make sure that all statutory documents are prepared, which will allow you to establish a Comoros Forex License. This procedure takes place in the first stage of the whole process of obtaining the license.
Step 4: Collecting KYC documents, due diligence and background checks
- We can help you obtain the KYC documents required for the application, which include passports, address verification, and CVs of the directors, shareholders, and any other individuals. Our staff will check the names of the applicants and conduct due diligence to ensure that there is no criminal conviction or any kind of disclosure on the part of the applicants.
Step 5: Drafting the business plan and financial projections
- Our team of business consultants assists in drafting the detailed business plan that outlines the nature of your forex brokerage business, your platform, liquidity providers, and financial forecast for the next three years. Our licensing and legal services make sure that the business plan adheres to the regulatory expectation that the business must be resourceful enough to thrive.
Step 6: Developing internal policies and compliance framework
- According to the rules of the Comoros Forex License, you are supposed to establish a set of policies within your company to ensure AML and KYC procedures, risk management, client money protection, and errors and omissions insurance. The team of our licensing experts prepares manuals on the topic according to the local legislation and international standards.
Step 7: Preparing application package
- Tetra Consultants team gathers the entire set of paperwork, including corporate documents, shareholder list, directors’ declaration, etc. We prepare your application form and make sure that all the required fields are filled correctly and concisely in accordance with the content of the business plan and internal compliance manuals.
Step 8: Submission of the Comoros Forex License application
- Upon completion of the file, Tetra Consultants submit the application either directly or through an intermediary as per regulation requirements, depending on the specific scenario. We will be monitoring your application submission and ensuring that it complies with all required guidelines in terms of form and content. This officially starts the regulatory review process of the Comoros Forex License application.
Step 9: Liaison with regulators during the review period
- The 3-month review period is coordinated by Tetra Consultants, as we coordinate directly with the case officer appointed for the specific license application. Our licensing and legal team answers all requests for information from the authorities, clarifies business plans, provides any additional required documents, and ensures overall compliance.
Step 10: Issuance of license and operational planning
- Upon approval of the Comoros Forex License application, Tetra Consultants coordinates with your brokerage for the issuance of the license and any listing procedure if required. Further, we assist you in launching the operations, such as reviewing and approving the trading platform, staff training schedule, and customer onboarding processes, among others.
Step 11: Corporate bank account opening
- Following the licensing process, Tetra Consultants helps you with corporate bank account opening to facilitate the operation of your forex trading activities, which includes separate client-money bank accounts. We collaborate with the partner banks to prepare KYC packs for the creation of an account structure to ensure effective forex settlements, deposits, and withdrawals from your company bank account.
Step 12: Ongoing compliance assistance
