The German Federal Parliament has passed a reform bill allowing customs officials to temporarily seize crypto assets, such as Bitcoin, even before criminal proceedings have been initiated, when there is concrete evidence suggesting the illegal origin of assets. The new regulations primarily target assets exceeding €100,000 and are scheduled to take effect on January 1, 2027, but still require approval from the Federal Council for formal promulgation. This mechanism falls under the administrative seizure procedure; possessing a large amount of Bitcoin is not sufficient grounds for seizure in itself, and final confiscation must be decided by the Fiscal Court.
