Scope FortiSwitch v7.0 and above.
Solution

Execute the command 'show full sys fortiguard' on FortiGate.

 

If the default settings are set:

 

config system fortiguard
...
    set fortiguard-anycast enable
    set protocol https
    set port 443
...
end

 

If so, change the following parameters:

 

    set fortiguard-anycast disable
    set protocol udp
    set port 8888
end

 

After that, update the FDS servers with the command 'execute update-now' and then reboot the FortiCloud process on FortiGate:

 

//Getting Process ID of FortiCloud process (forticldd)

FG-LALTUZAR # diagnose sys process pidof forticldd
179

 

//Rebooting the process

FG-LALTUZAR # diag sys kill 11 179

 

Try to register again the device and the issue should be resolved. Otherwise, follow the instructions described in Troubleshooting Tip: FortiCloud connection failure and open a new ticket with TAC for further assistance.
