The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of Thailand has announced the adoption of a new crypto Travel Rule. Digital‑asset service providers will be required to verify ownership or control over self‑custody wallets when processing transfers between clients and such wallets, and to collect information on both sides of each transaction. The regulation will enter into force on February 27 2027. Transaction records must be retained for a minimum of five years and are subject to regulatory inspections. Pornanong Budsaratragoon, Secretary‑General of Thailand SEC, stated that the rule aims to mitigate the risk of digital‑asset platforms being exploited for money‑laundering and terrorist‑financing activities.
