Is bitcoin legal in the Caribbean Netherlands?
No law in the Caribbean Netherlands bans bitcoin. Bonaire, Sint Eustatius, and Saba fall under Dutch financial supervision through the Financial Markets (BES Islands) Act, enforced by the AFM and De Nederlandsche Bank, but that framework contains no crypto-specific licensing regime and the EU's MiCA regulation does not automatically extend to the islands. In June 2026 the AFM and DNB opened a consultation on updated BES rules, including anti-money-laundering provisions.
