Regulatory frame
Circular No. 2507 adds Title VII TER to Uruguay’s securities-market rulebook: the first comprehensive virtual-asset services regime, drafted by the SSF and aligned with FATF standards. Typical scope includes exchange, transfer, custody, and related financial services — with prior authorization, governance, AML/CFT, and user protection.
Timeline and operating role
Authorization opens on 1 September 2026; operators already active have until 31 March 2027 to apply. In that transition, the operational question is not only what the rule requires, but how a VASP builds continuous evidence on wallets and flows. On-chain intelligence feeds that diligence with verifiable input; KYC, Travel Rule, official screening, and reporting remain the VASP’s responsibility.
