Which exchanges accept International bank transfer in São Tomé and Príncipe?
Of the 3 exchanges we recommend in São Tomé and Príncipe, Binance, Coinmama accept International bank transfer for funding purchases.
Is buying bitcoin with International bank transfer legal in São Tomé and Príncipe?
São Tomé and Príncipe has no cryptocurrency legislation, so bitcoin is legal by default rather than by design. The Central Bank of São Tomé and Príncipe (BCSTP) supervises the financial system and manages the dobra's peg to the euro but has established no licensing regime for digital assets. Users of foreign exchanges and P2P marketplaces therefore have no local regulatory protection.
