This comparison uses the published Axi and IC Markets facts listed below. Match the account type, instrument, country and contracting entity; a spread quote from one account is not comparable with a different account or instrument.

Axi: The help centre lists countries unavailable for onboarding and requires the applicant’s actual residence. A separate FAQ excludes Ontario, not all of Canada; the international website directs Australian/New Zealand residents to other arrangements. Axi Select has separate eligibility rules. Vietnam is not named in the brokerage exclusion list. Scope: Axi account-opening country policy; account entity remains location-dependent. IC Markets: Vietnam is not named in this non-exhaustive restriction notice. This is a source comparison, not confirmation of account acceptance. Other IC entities and local requirements need separate checks. Scope: IC / IC Markets Global: Raw Trading Ltd; international website.
