CASP License France: Everything You Need to Know

Get MiCA-Compliant & Strengthen Your Crypto Compliance with Scorechain

France has emerged as a leading crypto hub in Europe, with a well-defined regulatory framework under the Autoritรฉ des Marchรฉs Financiers (AMF). However, with the introduction of the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation, all crypto businesses operating in France must transition from their existing AMF registration to a CASP (Crypto-Asset Service Provider) license to continue offering services legally across the EU.

With compliance deadlines approaching, crypto businesses must act now to secure their CASP license and meet strict AML and risk management requirements. At Scorechain, we provide blockchain analytics, transaction monitoring, and AML compliance tools to help CASPs meet MiCA standards effortlessly.

๐Ÿ“… CASP License Timeline in France

To operate legally under MiCA, businesses must obtain a CASP license before the transition period ends:

๐Ÿ“Œ December 30, 2024 โ€“ MiCA regulations officially take effect.
๐Ÿ“Œ 2025 TBD โ€“ Final deadline to submit CASP license applications (exact date subject to confirmation).

๐Ÿ” What is a CASP License in France?

A Crypto-Asset Service Provider (CASP) license is required for companies providing crypto-related financial services in France and across the EU under MiCA regulations.

The CASP license replaces the current AMF Digital Asset Service Provider (DASP/PSAN) registration, ensuring full compliance with MiCA, AML, and counter-terrorism financing (CFT) laws.

  • Crypto Custody & Wallet Services
  • Crypto Trading & Exchange Platforms
  • Fiat-to-Crypto & Crypto-to-Crypto Transactions
