Draft Law on Digital Assets 📜 Key Highlights of the Amendments to the Digital Assets Law of 2025
1. Extraterritorial application on foreign platforms
The Emergency Decree on Digital Asset Business (No. 2) BE 2568 (2025) expands the regulatory requirements to include foreign digital asset service providers offering services to users in Thailand. These platforms are now required to obtain licenses from the Securities and Exchange Commission of Thailand (SEC) and comply with Thai regulations. The law states that platforms are considered to be operating in Thailand if:
• Providing services in the Thai language.
• Accepting payments in Thai Baht.
• Marketing or targeting Thai users.
2. Strengthening cybersecurity measures
The decree grants Thai authorities broader powers to suspend communication services and remove illegal digital content related to cybercrime activities. This includes the authority to ban unlicensed digital asset platforms and take decisive actions against financial activities and internet crimes.
3. Clarifying the regulatory scope
The amendments provide clearer definitions of what constitutes a digital asset business operating within Thailand, ensuring that both local and foreign entities are subject to consistent regulatory standards.
