The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) introduced these regulations on August 17, requiring Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs) based in the UK to comply with stringent information-sharing requirements for crypto-asset transfers.<img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/srd-optimized-uploads/219fdf8446344eb990e9a7bb5ba3ac18.png" />The Travel Rule mandates that UK-based VASPs must &#34;collect, verify, and share information&#34; regarding crypto-asset transfers. If a payment is received from an overseas source that does not have the Travel Rule in place, VASPs must conduct a &#34;risk-based assessment&#34; to determine whether to release the crypto assets to the beneficiary.The Travel Rule, originally devised by the United Nations agency Financial Action Task Force (FATF) in June 2019, became legally <a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1083351/MLRs_SI_2022_-_Consultation_Response_final.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">binding</a> in the UK in July 2022. Its primary objective is to enforce Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing rules for on-chain activities.
