DAC8 and Crypto Asset Reporting Framework
While the industry has been focused on MiCA licensing, a new compliance challenge is approaching fast. On January 1, 2026, the EU's DAC8 directive enters into force, changing how crypto-service providers collect and report user data to tax authorities.
For Estonian VASPs and future CASPs, this means the Estonian Tax and Customs Board (MTA) will require transaction reporting that goes beyond current AML/KYC obligations.
Join us for this webinar designed for crypto-asset service providers. We will discuss the challenges and provide a practical timeline for compliance. Elvis Roog, product owner at the Intelligence Department at the Estonian Tax and Customs Board, will share with attendees the directive implementation process, implications, and enforcement mechanisms.
What We Will Cover:
DAC8 vs. MiCA: Understanding the difference between market regulation and tax transparency.
New Reporting Obligations: What data (TINs, transaction volumes) must you collect from your users starting Jan 1, 2026?
The "RCASP" Definition: Does your business fall under the scope?
Technical Readiness: How to prepare your IT systems for automatic exchange of information (AEOI).
