Artikel 98 Samarbete med andra myndigheter

Summary What does Article 98 of the MiCA regulation say?

This brief but practically important article addresses a coordination gap that arises when regulated entities under MiCA also operate in other regulated domains.

It places an obligation on competent authorities to cooperate with whichever other supervisory bodies — domestic, EU-level, or from third countries — are responsible for overseeing those non-MiCA activities.

The scope of this cross-authority cooperation is notably broad, explicitly including tax authorities and supervisors from outside the EU.

Important points:

Competent authorities are required to cooperate with other relevant supervisory bodies when a MiCA-regulated entity also engages in activities falling outside this Regulation.
The cooperation obligation extends to tax authorities and relevant supervisory authorities of third countries.
This article applies across all major MiCA-regulated actors: offerors, persons seeking admission to trading, issuers of asset-referenced tokens or e-money tokens, and crypto-asset service providers.

Springlex's summary of the article, a reading aid, not a substitute for the legal text.

När en erbjudare, en person som ansöker om upptagande till handel, en utgivare av en tillgångsanknuten token eller e-pengatoken eller en leverantör av kryptotillgångstjänster bedriver annan verksamhet än den som omfattas av denna förordning, ska de behöriga myndigheterna samarbeta med de myndigheter som ansvarar för tillsynen eller kontrollen av sådan annan verksamhet enligt relevant unionsrätt eller nationell rätt, inbegripet skattemyndigheter och relevanta tillsynsmyndigheter i tredjeländer.
