Reported as a scam / unregulated
Why VTR Trade is on the register
VTR Trade claims to be incorporated in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and to maintain an office in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). First, we searched the register of the Financial Services Authority (FSA) of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines for VTR Trade Limited and found that its registration status is listed as “cancelled.” This indicates the company is no longer in good standing and may not be legally authorized to operate, raising immediate red flags about its current business status. Second, we checked the databases of the UAE’s primary financial regulators—the Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA) and the Central Bank of the UAE (CBUAE)—and found no record of VTR Trade or any affiliated entity. This confirms that the platform holds no valid license to operate as a broker in the UAE. Therefore, VTR Trade appears to be a scam.
If you have money with this broker
- Stop sending funds. Do not pay any further “fees”, “taxes” or “verification” charges to release a withdrawal — this is a common secondary scam.
- Preserve evidence. Save transaction IDs, wallet addresses, chat logs, and every screenshot before the account is closed.
- Report it. Notify your bank/exchange and your national financial regulator so the activity is on record.
- Get guidance. Tell us what happened and we will point you toward the right next step. We are a free public registry — we never charge any fees.
