Royal Decree of 2 June 2012 adapting the list of entities subject to the Law of 11 January 1993 on the prevention of the use of the financial system for money laundering and terrorist financing

This Royal Decree amends Article 2, § 1, 4°ter, of the Law of 11 January 1993 to explicitly include payment institutions under Belgian law, their Belgian branches, and payment institutions from other EEA states offering services in Belgium via a stable establishment. These entities are now subject to the anti-money laundering and terrorist financing obligations of the 1993 Law, including the requirement to report suspicious transactions to the Financial Information Processing Cell. The decree clarifies that payment institutions operating through agents in Belgium constitute a stable establishment subject to territorial application of the law, without imposing an obligation to physically establish a branch.
