Singapore Directs Unlicensed Crypto Firms to Halt Overseas Services

Singapore’s Monetary Authority (MAS) has mandated all locally based crypto firms without a Digital Token Service Provider license to cease services to overseas clients by June 30, 2025.

The action signals stricter regulatory oversight to align with global anti-money laundering standards, impacting the operations of numerous crypto service providers based in Singapore.

The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) is enforcing a new directive requiring unlicensed crypto firms to stop offering overseas services by mid-2025. The regulatory action aligns with global standards, emphasizing the need for licensed operations to ensure consumer protection.

Firms must have at least one local resident director and maintain a physical office in Singapore. MAS stated that “cross-border services offered without regulatory clearance could expose users to unfair practices and raise the risk of financial misconduct.” Licensing will be approved only in exceptional cases, and companies must demonstrate solid business models.

The directive affects not just the crypto industry but also financial markets relying on cross-border services. MAS highlighted the reduction in risk exposure, yet firms criticize the lack of phased transition. Experts see potential disruptions in the crypto ecosystem, as businesses adjust to new compliance standards.

Compliance obligations will include AML measures and transaction monitoring, affecting operational costs and strategies. These changes may serve as a precursor to wider regulatory adaptations that could reshape the financial technology landscape.

The regulatory landscape is transforming rapidly with broader implications for crypto markets. Firms may seek alternative jurisdictions or invest in compliance capabilities. The MAS directive might spur similar regulatory actions globally, reflecting heightened scrutiny of digital asset services.
