Is buying bitcoin with Credit or debit card legal in Reunion?

Bitcoin is fully legal in Reunion, an overseas department of France and part of the European Union. Platforms serve the island under the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets regulation (MiCA), supervised in France by the Autorite des Marches Financiers (AMF), and since July 1, 2026 only MiCA-authorized providers may offer crypto services to French customers. French tax law applies, so individuals declare digital asset gains exactly as in mainland France.
