EEA + TurkeyCASP route familyPassporting depends on jurisdiction

CASP Licence — Crypto Asset Service Provider

The CASP label spans two route families in this project: MiCA-aligned EEA authorisations rendered through CASP country pages, and Turkey's local-market SPK route. Use this hub to compare both models before narrowing to a jurisdiction.

What does the CASP route cover in this project?

The CASP term appears both inside the EEA MiCA environment and in Turkey's domestic capital-markets framework. The shared label does not mean identical rights: EEA pages focus on MiCA-aligned authorisation, while Turkey is a local-market route with no EEA passporting.

  • EEA CASP country pages in this project describe MiCA-aligned authorisation with potential EU/EEA passporting once the approved service scope is notified correctly.
  • Turkey CASP is a separate domestic route supervised through the SPK framework and should be treated as a local-market authorisation only.
  • The same acronym does not eliminate jurisdiction-specific differences in service scope, capital, substance, banking and regulator expectations.
  • Use the country pages to compare whether the business needs EU/EEA reach, institutional reputation, lower cost or Turkey-only access.
  • Where the business does not need EEA access, compare VASP, DASP or DAB routes rather than assuming CASP is always the right family.

CASP is not a single global licence. EEA CASP pages and Turkey CASP describe materially different regulatory outcomes.

Who the CASP route family is right for

Best for

  • Businesses comparing EEA MiCA-aligned CASP jurisdictions through a CASP-focused country lens.
  • Operators that want to separate EEA passporting routes from Turkey's domestic SPK route before selecting a filing strategy.
  • Teams that need to compare institutional EEA positioning against non-passportable local-market access.

Not for

  • Users expecting one generic CASP label to mean the same rights in every jurisdiction.
  • Projects that only need non-EU registration-style routes and do not care about EEA positioning.
  • Teams that have not yet separated passporting needs from single-market access needs.

Frequently asked questions about CASP routes

No. The CASP label is shared, but EEA pages describe MiCA-aligned authorisation while Turkey describes a domestic SPK route. Passporting, service scope and supervisory posture differ materially.

No. Turkey CASP is a local-market route. If the business needs EU/EEA market access, use an EEA MiCA-aligned jurisdiction instead.

Because the project contains both MiCA-aligned CASP country pages and a distinct Turkey CASP page. The hub's job is to prevent topic mismatch by making that split explicit before the user clicks into a jurisdiction.

This information is for general guidance only. Jurisdiction-specific requirements, scope and passporting rights must be validated before relying on any CASP route.
