Cryptocurrency Regulation in Czech Republic 

European jurisdictions can be a great start for launching and successfully developing a crypto startup. Many choose the Czech Republic because running a crypto business here requires lower costs than in other EU countries. In this jurisdiction, the crypto market is actively developing, and the regulator strives to create favorable conditions for investors and a safe environment for platform users. The National Bank is responsible for Czech Republic crypto regulations. In this country, crypto assets are recognized as intangible assets that exist in digital form. However, most of them are not means of payment. Since there are no legislative acts in this jurisdiction, except Anti-money laundering (AML) legislation, that establish special requirements for companies operating in the crypto sector, no special crypto license in Czech Republic is required. To operate legally, it is enough to register a company in the Trade Register, indicating that its activity will be related to virtual assets and register the AML compliance officer with the Financial Analysis Unit (FAÚ).

Despite such a liberal approach to the registration procedure, the country strictly adheres to the 4th and 5th EU Anti-Money Laundering Directives. Crypto exchanges or crypto exchanges, as well as their clients, must comply with AML and KYC procedures. Learn more about the cryptocurrency legal framework in Czech Republic from SBSB experts.
