Crypto-asset service providers in Finland must be authorised in the EU
Finland's FIN-FSA reminds firms that from 1 July 2026 crypto-asset services in the EU and the EEA require authorisation, after some other countries allowed a transition period that Finland did not. It points clients to the ESMA register and recommends moving to an authorised provider that serves Finland if their current firm is not on it. A client may still approach an unauthorised provider in a third country on their own initiative, but that firm may no longer market other services or new crypto-assets to them.
