What MiCA coverage means

MiCA allows authorised providers to offer notified services across the EU. It does not require them to accept residents of every country or offer the same coins and features everywhere. The EEA includes the EU, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway; Switzerland and the United Kingdom have separate regimes.

“Country included” refers to the provider’s published service or verification scope, subject to account requirements. “Regional scope only” does not confirm individual country eligibility. Countries outside the selector have not been checked here.

The coin checker uses Kraken’s country-filtered spot markets and published regional asset rules. Other Germany results retain their individual record dates and are not applied abroad. Sources are dated snapshots, not live account checks. Hardware wallet support follows the coin’s chain, independently of residence.
