<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-compliance-with-mica-regulation"><strong>Compliance with MiCA Regulation</strong></h3>
<p>Circle USDC and <a href="https://www.circle.com/en/eurc" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">EURC stablecoins</a> are now MiCA compliant in the EU. It allows Circle to issue these stablecoins directly to European customers.</p>
<p>While MiCA provides regulatory guidance for stablecoins and digital asset markets, the framework is not yet enforced after being approved by the EU Parliament last year.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Compliance with these rules allows Circle to use its stablecoins in payments, finance and trade as part of the general financial infrastructure. Speaking on the matter, Circle CEO highlighted its strategic choice to establish it European division in France as they have been working with French regulators over a year.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Circle now has this authorisation to operate under the supervision of the Autorité de Contrôle Prudentiel et de Résolution (ACPR), which it claims is a first for any digital currency business in France.</p>
