Artikel 1 Kooperationsvereinbarungen

Summary What does Article 1 of the RTS on third country supervisory cooperation say?

This article serves a purely procedural and administrative purpose, directing competent authorities of Member States to a standardised template document for establishing cooperation arrangements.

The template itself is contained in the Annex to this Regulation.

This article directly supports and operationalises Article 107(1) of Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 (MiCA), which requires competent authorities to enter into such cooperation arrangements.

Important points:

Competent authorities are required to use the template document set out in the Annex when establishing cooperation arrangements under Article 107(1) of MiCA.
The use of the template applies "where possible", indicating it is the default standard form rather than a rigid obligation.
Competent authorities covered include those designated for crypto-asset service providers, issuers of asset-referenced tokens, and issuers of e-money tokens.
