Pakistan's Virtual Asset Regulatory Authority (PVARA) has issued a regulatory notice stating that under the *Virtual Assets Act 2026*, providing virtual asset-related services in Pakistan—including stablecoins, cross-border payments, and tokenization—requires prior regulatory approval. The announcement emphasized that announcing partnerships or pilot projects without prior communication may lead to compliance and FATF risks, or even make it impossible to proceed legally. Relevant organizations or individuals are urged to apply for authorization in advance through the regulatory process. https://(wublock123.com)/news/pakistan-regulator-requires-preapproval-for-virtual-asset-businesses-60157
