MiCA Regulation in Luxembourg: What You Need to Know
Since MiCA became fully applicable across the EU in December 2024, any firm offering crypto-asset services in Luxembourg — such as custody, operating a trading platform, exchanging crypto for fiat, executing orders, or providing advice — must be authorized as a Crypto-Asset Service Provider (CASP). In Luxembourg, that authorization is granted by the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF).
One of MiCA's biggest advantages is passporting: a provider authorized in Luxembourg can offer its services in every other EU and EEA member state without applying for a separate licence in each country. This is why the country in which a firm is authorized matters, and why MICA Watch organizes the register by member state.
The tables above list crypto-asset entities whose home member state is Luxembourg, based on the official interim registers published by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA). Data is refreshed regularly; the current snapshot reflects the status as of 18 August 2026.

MiCA in Luxembourg: common questions
How many MiCA-regulated crypto-asset entities are there in Luxembourg?
As of 18 August 2026, MICA Watch tracks 68 MiCA-related entries with Luxembourg as the home member state, including 13 authorised Crypto-Asset Service Providers and 3 e-money token issuer records. Figures come from the ESMA interim register and are refreshed as authorities publish changes.
Who regulates crypto-asset service providers in Luxembourg?
Crypto-asset service providers based in Luxembourg are authorised and supervised by the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF), the national competent authority responsible for applying the EU Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) in Luxembourg.
Can a CASP authorised in Luxembourg operate in other EU countries?
Yes. Under MiCA an authorisation granted by the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF) can be passported across all 27 EU member states and the EEA, subject to notification requirements — a firm does not need a separate licence in each country.
