Virtual currency and related services are one of the popular trends in the world of financial technology.

In Estonia, a license for the provision of virtual currency services is issued by the Money Laundering Information Bureau.

A licensed company qualifies as a financial institution, but does not have specific reporting requirements to the tax authorities. The accounting records should be kept as for a regular company. No special reporting to regulatory authorities is required. But the Bureau of Money Laundering Data can make orders and inquiries regarding the activities of the crypto firm.
