VASP LICENSES

We provide comprehensive support in obtaining VASP (Virtual Asset Service Provider) licenses in Poland, Slovakia, and Lithuania.

Obtaining a VASP (Virtual Asset Service Provider) license is essential for companies planning to operate in the field of services related to cryptocurrencies, tokens, and other virtual assets within the European Union.

Thompson&Stein offers comprehensive support throughout the VASP license acquisition process, from registering a company in the chosen country to preparing documentation in accordance with local regulations. We have extensive experience in obtaining VASP licenses and work with companies involved in blockchain and cryptocurrency technologies across the European Union, helping them operate legally in the digital asset sector.

Our services include preparing the company to meet licensing requirements, conducting compliance audits, supporting the organization of AML/KYC training for employees, and providing full representation before local supervisory authorities. With the professional support of Thompson&Stein, our clients can be confident that their operations will be fully compliant with local regulations and European legal standards, allowing them to conduct business safely and effectively in the cryptocurrency industry.

VASP LICENSES

Thompson&Stein Law Firm supports entrepreneurs planning to develop their activities related to digital assets in obtaining VASP (Virtual Asset Service Provider) licenses in countries such as Poland, Slovakia, and Lithuania. The VASP license is crucial for entities dealing with virtual assets—from cryptocurrency trading to token storage—enabling them to operate in accordance with EU regulations and European standards. Enterprises that obtain a VASP license in one of the selected countries can benefit from the uniform MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets) regulations, which harmonize operational rules across the European Union. This means that possessing a VASP license compliant with MiCA allows for providing services in all EU markets while ensuring compliance with AML (Anti-Money Laundering) and KYC (Know Your Customer) requirements.

Obtaining a VASP license requires completing a series of formalities, including implementing financial security policies and adjusting operational procedures to meet regulatory compliance requirements. Thompson&Stein offers support at every stage of the process, including assistance with company registration, developing documentation compliant with AML and KYC principles, and consulting on the implementation of regulations required by MiCA. Companies involved in blockchain technology, cryptocurrency exchange, and other services related to virtual assets can achieve full legal compliance and transparency with our help, which is essential for building trust in the financial sector. With our support, entrepreneurs can be confident that their operations comply with both local regulations and European directives.

We also provide assistance in preparing compliance audits and organizing training for personnel in AML and KYC, which are essential for meeting licensing requirements. Our team also offers comprehensive legal advice after obtaining the VASP license, allowing companies to conduct business safely and effectively without legal risks. Our law firm collaborates with many companies in the fintech and blockchain sectors, helping them fully leverage the potential of digital technologies and virtual assets in line with the highest legal standards. The MiCA regulations introduce a unified set of regulations that significantly facilitate the provision of VASP services throughout the European Union, enabling licenses obtained in one member state to open opportunities for expansion into new markets.

Obtaining a VASP license compliant with MiCA is not only a matter of formalities but also an opportunity for business growth and building a competitive advantage. VASP licenses in Poland, Slovakia, and Lithuania, obtained with the assistance of Thompson&Stein, provide entrepreneurs with access to the EU financial markets under secure terms. Thanks to our comprehensive support, our clients can fully exploit the advantages of MiCA-compliant licenses, including the ability to offer services on a "passporting" basis, which allows them to provide services in other EU countries without needing to obtain additional licenses. Our consulting also includes support in adapting operational compliance procedures, ensuring high standards of compliance and customer data protection.

By choosing to work with Thompson&Stein, entrepreneurs can expect complete preparation, implementation, and monitoring of VASP compliance in accordance with the latest MiCA regulations.
