Is bitcoin legal in Vanuatu?
Bitcoin is legal in Vanuatu. The Virtual Asset Service Providers Act, passed by Parliament on March 26, 2025, gives the Vanuatu Financial Services Commission authority to license and supervise exchanges, custodians, and other virtual asset businesses, extending the earlier Financial Dealers Licensing Act framework that added digital asset classes in 2021. The regime mainly targets internationally facing companies; there is no ban on residents buying or holding bitcoin, and the vatu remains the only legal tender.
