Compliance Obligations for Offshore Digital Asset Platforms and User Access in South Korea
The South Korean government maintains strict oversight regarding the accessibility of foreign digital asset trading platforms, including KuCoin, for domestic users. These measures are designed to ensure that all entities providing financial services to Korean residents adhere to local legal standards, which are primarily enforced by the Financial Services Commission (FSC). Navigating this landscape requires an understanding of how local authorities categorize service providers and the specific requirements for operating within the jurisdiction.
