Where this comes from

Derived from Coinmama's restricted countries and states page, https://www.coinmama.com/support/restricted-countries-and-states, read on 2026-09-05. It is an exclusion list: every country listed here is a sourced no, and a country absent from it is unknown rather than served. The page also names New York and Louisiana, which the state pages cover, and territories without a guide on this site (Abkhazia, Crimea, Northern Cyprus, South Ossetia, the Luhansk and Donetsk regions, the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic and North Korea), which are not listed. Nine of the countries on the page (Belarus, the Central African Republic, Lebanon, Nicaragua, Palestine, Somalia, South Sudan, Venezuela and Zimbabwe) were ranked in this site's guides until 2026-09-07, when those rows were removed on the strength of this page: the operator's own list decides availability.

Frequently asked questions

Is Coinmama available in Afghanistan?

No. Coinmama lists Afghanistan among the countries whose residents it cannot serve. Derived from Coinmama's restricted countries and states page, https://www.coinmama.com/support/restricted-countries-and-states, read on 2026-09-05. Our Afghanistan guide was last reviewed 2026-08-20 and the Coinmama review on 2026-09-07.

Why does Coinmama not serve Afghanistan?

Coinmama names Afghanistan on the restricted-countries list it publishes, without a per-country reason. The list is quoted on this page with the date it was read; a country absent from it is unknown rather than served, which is why this site only says no where the operator itself does.

What platforms state that they serve Afghanistan?

Our Afghanistan guide ranks no exchange yet.

Is bitcoin legal in Afghanistan?

Cryptocurrency is banned in Afghanistan. Da Afghanistan Bank, the central bank, declared crypto trading forbidden in August 2022, and police in Herat shut down local crypto dealerships and arrested traders that same month. The ban remains in force, there is no licensing framework, and sanctions on Taliban-controlled institutions keep regulated foreign platforms out of the market entirely.

Where is Coinmama available?

Coinmama ranks in 136 of our country guides and lists 22 countries it cannot serve, Afghanistan included. Both lists are on the Coinmama countries page.
