European Union compliance means adhering to the laws and regulations established by the European Union. This refers to the obligation for entities operating within or interacting with the EU market to meet the standards set by EU directives and regulations across various sectors. For digital assets, this includes mandates such as the Markets in Crypto-Assets regulation, the General Data Protection Regulation, and anti-money laundering directives. Compliance ensures legal operation, consumer protection, and financial stability within the European economic area.
