CoinVoice has recently learned that, according to Crowdfund Insider citing local media reports, the Parliament of Trinidad and Tobago has passed a bill aimed at regulating cryptocurrency and related service providers. The "2025 Virtual Assets and Virtual Asset Service Providers Act" establishes a framework for licensing and regulating virtual asset activities in Caribbean countries. The bill was first introduced by the Minister of Finance in September last year, and the government stated that the bill is closely related to meeting anti-money laundering and anti-terrorism financing standards prior to Trinidad and Tobago's fifth round mutual evaluation by the Caribbean Financial Action Task Force (CFATF), including an on-site review scheduled for March 2026.
