Why Thailand Wants Your Opinion
Thailand’s Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has launched a public consultation on rules that would allow licensed crypto exchanges to list their own exchange‑issued tokens. These are utility tokens created or affiliated with the exchange itself. The consultation period is open until July 21, 2025, and the public is encouraged to share feedback.
Key Proposals & Safeguards
The SEC’s proposed regulations focus on transparency and risk management:
- Exchange-issued Tokens Allowed: Exchanges can list self-issued or affiliated tokens, but must clearly disclose their intended usage.
- Disclosure Requirements: Exchanges must identify individuals affiliated with token issuers and update these details in the SEC’s e-reporting system. This measure is intended to monitor and reduce the risk of insider trading.
- Retroactive Compliance: Existing tokens already listed by exchanges must comply with the new disclosure rules within 90 days of the regulations coming into effect.
What It Signals for Crypto in Thailand
This move aligns with Thailand’s recent crypto-friendly policies, such as a five-year capital gains tax exemption on crypto trades and plans to allow tourists to pay in crypto. These steps aim to position the country as a regional hub for digital assets while ensuring investor safety and regulatory clarity. The feedback initiative is a significant step toward creating a more open and secure digital asset market in Thailand.
