The short answer
The maximum CASP transitional period ended on 1 July 2026. Some Member States used shorter periods. ESMA’s April statement and the later CSSF notice make the operational implication clear: an old registration should not be used as a permanent stand-in for current permission. [ESMA] [CSSF]
Source-linked facts below are distinct from our suggested workflows. Examples are hypothetical; this is not individual legal, tax or investment advice.
The operating distinction
Open the contract before searching the register. Record the actual entity, then match the relevant services and identifiers. A group’s public announcement may concern a different company from the one holding the account. Preserve the current source and note any discrepancy rather than marking the review complete because the brand is familiar.
What to retain
If permission cannot be established, escalate before sending assets. A migration plan should inventory wallets, balances, pending instructions and the data needed for a new provider. Do not describe a live authorisation feed as part of this site: the register worksheet records a user-led check only.
Method, assumptions and limits
Regulatory facts are linked to primary sources. Suggested workflows are our editorial synthesis; examples and fee scenarios are hypothetical. The mechanical illustration is a conceptual navigation aid, not a prescribed legal funds flow.
This is a dated research edition, not an automatically updated register or live price feed. Check the applicable entity, service, jurisdiction and source version before using the material.
