Regulation on Licensing of Crypto-Assets Service Operators Providing Exchange Services
The Central Bank of the Republic of Kosovo has issued a regulation mandating licensing for legal entities providing crypto-asset exchange services, covering fiat conversions and peer-to-peer crypto swaps. The framework establishes a €125,000 minimum capital threshold, requires fit-and-proper management boards, and outlines a 60-day assessment procedure for license applications. Licensed operators must maintain continuous compliance with anti-money laundering standards, ensure transparent client disclosures, and remain subject to the Central Bank’s supervisory powers for license suspension or revocation.
