Azerbaijan submits crypto bill requiring central bank licenses for all VASPs

AI Market Summary
Azerbaijan has submitted its first comprehensive crypto regulatory draft, requiring all virtual asset service providers to be licensed and supervised by the central bank with strict AML/KYC controls. The framework, targeted for passage by end-2026, improves legal clarity for exchanges and custodians and may support institutional comfort, though it is not tied to any specific token. Near-term market impact is limited and largely jurisdiction-specific.

On July 5, 2026, Azerbaijan submitted its first comprehensive cryptocurrency regulation draft, requiring all virtual asset service providers to be licensed by the country’s central bank before operating. The proposal would introduce ongoing supervision and anti-money laundering compliance checks and is expected to be adopted before the end of 2026. The framework covers exchanges, custodians and other crypto service firms, but does not include any plan to issue a CBDC. Azerbaijan is also in talks with international companies including Binance on regulatory cooperation.
