What’s required (EU/Belgium)
- Use a compliant provider: In Belgium, VASPs/CASPs operating locally must be registered with the FSMA; EU‑licensed providers also operate under MiCA/AML rules.
- Travel Rule (EU TFR): For transfers via exchanges/custodians, your provider must collect and transmit sender/recipient info. For self‑hosted wallets, they’ll collect your details and, for larger transfers (around €1,000+), may have to verify you control the wallet. Expect name, wallet/exchange details, and sometimes purpose-of-payment questions.
- AML/CTF checks: Be prepared for source‑of‑funds/wealth queries for larger or unusual transfers. Enhanced diligence applies for high‑risk countries (EU list).
