Bolivia extends the deadline for cryptocurrency exchange license applications to April 2026

Jinse Finance reported that the Bolivian Financial System Supervisory Authority (ASFI) has issued Resolution No. 1203/2025, extending the application deadline for regulatory procedures for fintech companies (including cryptocurrency exchanges) to April 30, 2026. The previous deadline was December 31, 2025. According to official documents, as of November 2025, only 11 companies had submitted letters of intent, and no company had yet entered the controlled testing environment (ECP). Bolivia lifted its comprehensive ban on cryptocurrencies in June 2024 and is currently advancing the construction of its regulatory framework. Companies that fail to submit a letter of intent within the specified period will be prohibited from operating and promoting themselves as authorized fintech companies.
