The European Commission has issued letters of formal notice to 12 European Union member states—Belgium, Bulgaria, Czechia, Estonia, Greece, Spain, Cyprus, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Poland and Portugal—for failing to fully transpose Directive, which amends the Directive on administrative cooperation to enable tax transparency and information exchange on crypto‑assets and financial accounts; those states have two months to reply and complete transposition.

Separately, the Commission has opened an infringement procedure against Hungary for enacting an act which creates an authorization regime for “exchange validation services” with criminal liability that conflicts with Regulation on markets in crypto‑assets (MiCA); Hungary has two months to address the Commission’s concerns or face a possible reasoned opinion, and any further action would follow EU infringement procedures.
