Country-specific information and sanctions
Dappr's services are available to business founders worldwide, but eligibility depends on several factors, including the country of residence of individuals associated with the business. Due to legal and regulatory requirements, Dappr cannot serve companies that have any connection to prohibited countries. Additionally, certain countries require enhanced review before we can approve business formation and financial services.
Prohibited Countries
Dappr and its partners cannot provide services to companies where any shareholder, beneficial owner, director, officer, LLC member, LLC manager, or any authorized representativeโwhether operating domestically or internationally, including subsidiaries and heavily integrated entitiesโresides in any of the following countries:
Cuba (Republic of Cuba)
Iran (Islamic Republic of Iran)
North Korea (Democratic People's Republic of Korea)
Syria (Syrian Arab Republic)
Russia (The Russian Federation)
The Ukrainian regions of Crimea, Luhansk, and Donetsk (due to their occupation by Russian forces and paramilitary groups)
Businesses with any connection to individuals residing in these jurisdictions are ineligible to register or use any of Dapprโs services and features.
Ukraine War and Dapprโs Stance
Dappr considers the Russian invasion of Ukraine to be a moral disgrace and stands in solidarity with the Ukrainian people. Unfortunately, due to restrictions imposed by our partners, we are required to implement limitations that may affect Ukrainian founders. We deeply regret these restrictions and acknowledge the hardships they impose on Ukrainian entrepreneurs. Dappr remains committed to assisting Ukrainian business owners in any way permitted within the constraints of regulatory and banking policies.
Countries Eligible Without Enhanced Review
Businesses with owners, directors, and other key stakeholders residing in these countries are eligible to use Dapprโs services without additional verification beyond our standard compliance checks.

Unlisted countries or territories
Any unlisted countries or territories on this page may be supported under certain conditions, but eligibility is determined on a case-by-case basis. Companies with at least one officer, director, individual with 25%+ ownership stake, or legal representative with residence in an unlisted country are most likely ineligible to make use of Dappr
Ongoing Eligibility and Notification Requirements
It is imperative that companies registered with Dappr promptly notify us if there is any change in their organizational structure or stakeholder residence that might affect their eligibility. Specifically, if a shareholder, beneficial owner, director, officer, LLC member, LLC manager, or any authorized representative becomes resident in any prohibited country, or if such a person joins the company, you must inform Dappr immediately.
Compliance and Fraud Prevention
Dappr is committed to maintaining compliance with international laws and preventing fraud. All business formation applications undergo identity verification, background screening, and other due diligence processes to ensure compliance with U.S. and international regulations. If an application is flagged for further review, applicants will be notified of additional steps required.
For any questions regarding eligibility based on country of residence, please contact Dapprโs support team.
