Bosnia and Herzegovina

Bosnia and Herzegovina

Turkey

Turkey

Partially Regulated
Legal

Bosnia and Herzegovina has no comprehensive crypto legislation. The Central Bank warns crypto is not legal tender and banks cannot convert crypto to BAM. Crypto trading is legal. A 2024 AML law designates VASPs as obligated entities. Republika Srpska gave crypto legal status as digital records of value in 2022. Corporate tax on crypto is 10%.

Turkey has one of the highest crypto adoption rates globally, driven by lira depreciation and high inflation. While crypto ownership is legal, the CBRT banned crypto payments in April 2021. In 2024, Turkey passed comprehensive crypto legislation under the Capital Markets Law amendment, giving the CMB authority to license and regulate crypto asset service providers. No crypto-specific tax exists yet, though legislation is under consideration. MASAK (Financial Crimes Investigation Board) oversees AML compliance.
