LEGAL BASIS FOR OUR REGULATORY WORK
Read the legislation without leaving CryptoLicense.ge
This library brings the principal Georgian VASP laws, National Bank of Georgia orders, AML/CFT, transfer-information, stable-asset and tax materials into the same CryptoLicense.ge design. Each page identifies the document’s relevance to VASP work, reproduces the official text and keeps the official Matsne link at the bottom.
