Definition ∞ A transition relief period is a temporary interval granted by regulators, allowing entities to adapt to new rules or compliance requirements without immediate penalties. This grace period provides businesses with time to adjust their operations, update systems, or obtain necessary authorizations. It aims to mitigate disruption and facilitate a smoother shift to a new regulatory environment. Such periods are common during significant policy changes.
Context ∞ The digital asset industry frequently advocates for transition relief periods when new, complex regulations are introduced, such as those related to tax reporting or licensing. A key discussion often concerns the adequacy of the provided timeframe for businesses to implement substantial operational changes.
