Is buying bitcoin with Credit or debit card legal in French Guiana?

Bitcoin is fully legal in French Guiana because French and EU law apply directly in overseas departments. Crypto platforms serving residents operate under the EU's MiCA regulation, supervised in France by the Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF), which is transitioning firms from the older PACTE-law DASP registrations to full MiCA authorisation. French tax law applies too: occasional capital gains on digital assets fall under the 30 percent flat tax, exactly as in mainland France.
