What Is Changing
Finland applies MiCA directly. ESMA's list of grandfathering periods shows a 6-month transitional period, so providers that relied on national rules had to hold a MiCA authorisation by 30 June 2025. ESMA's Article 93 list names Finanssivalvonta (FIN-FSA) as competent authority for crypto-asset service providers.
The figures below count entries in ESMA's interim MiCA register (CASPS.csv) with Finland as home member state, and entries passporting services into Finland. They are recalculated on every build.
ESMA Interim MiCA Register: Entries by Home Member State
- 379 entries (376 unique LEIs) in ESMA's CASP register
- 5 entries with Finland as home member state
- 184 entries list Finland among the countries where services are provided
