Happy to help, @dimadragon. To open an account with us, you must reside in the United States. Residency, not citizenship, is the primary consideration for whether an account can be opened at Fidelity. That being said, there are situations where an account is opened for you by an employer or an account is opened while you lived in the United States. To best assist you, please let us know what kind of account you have with us. We hope to hear from you soon. 🟢
