Gibraltar Crypto Lisence Procedure
The entire process can take several months, depending on the complexity of the application and the efficiency with which the necessary documents and compliance structures are prepared. From our side we guarantee the best possible approach since we have gone through it many times.
1
Pre-Application Consultation
A legal team assesses your business model and activities to determine if they comply with Gibraltar’s regulatory framework for Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) businesses.
2
Preparation of Documentation
We assist you in preparation of the following: Business Plan, Compliance Policies, Corporate Governance Structure, Capital Requirements.
3
Submission of Application
Submit the full application to the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission (GFSC), including all required documents such as your business plan, compliance policies, and proof of sufficient financial resources. Pay the required application and licensing fees to the GFSC.
4
Regulatory Review
The GFSC will perform an in-depth review of your business, focusing on governance, risk management, and compliance with DLT regulations. They may request further clarifications or additional documents during this stage.
5
Fit and Proper Test
The GFSC will assess whether the directors, officers, and significant shareholders of the company meet the “fit and proper” criteria. This test evaluates their financial integrity, experience, and track record in managing regulated businesses.
6
Granting of In-Principle Approval
Once the GFSC is satisfied with the application and the company’s compliance procedures, it issues an “in-principle” approval. This allows the business to move forward with setting up operations but does not yet permit full business activities.
7
Operational Setup
After receiving in-principle approval, the company must finalize its operational setup, including securing office space, IT systems, and staffing. Put in place the final AML/KYC measures, risk management procedures, and internal governance structures as outlined in your application.
8
Final Review and Issuance of License
The GFSC may conduct an on-site inspection to verify that the business is fully operational and compliant with the submitted business plan and policies. After the inspection and any final checks, the GFSC issues the full Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) Provider License, allowing the business to legally operate.
9
Post-Licensing Obligations
Regularly submit compliance reports, financial statements, and undergo periodic audits to maintain the license. Update the GFSC of any significant changes to the business, such as changes in key personnel, and renew the license when required.
