Basnet Attorneys and Law Advises Major Payment System Provider on Stablecoin Regulations in Bhutan

Basnet Attorneys and Law is pleased to announce that our firm has recently advised a major international payment system provider on the regulatory treatment of stablecoins and digital payment instruments under Bhutanese law.

As part of this engagement, our law team conducted a comprehensive review of Bhutan’s legal and regulatory framework, including the Financial Services Act 2011, the Royal Monetary Authority Act 2010, and various directives governing virtual assets, payment systems, and cross-border remittances. Our advice covered key issues such as licensing and registration requirements, consumer protection standards, AML/CFT obligations, and cross-jurisdictional compliance implications.
