Major Developments in Crypto Regulations in Singapore 2025

June 30, 2025- FMSA License 

Under the  Financial Services and Markets Act 2022 (FSMA), all crypto firms based in Singapore offering cross-border crypto services must obtain a license.

MAS clarifies that it is mandatory for the digital token service providers (DTSPs) offering services in Singapore to obtain a license. 

Failure to comply will result in a penalty, including fines up to SGD 250,000 and prison terms of up to three years. 

June 6, 2025– Monetary Authority Of Singapore (MAS):

This approach will be implemented in June. It aims to enhance the safeguards for digital payment token (DPT) service providers, including crypto exchanges, and protect retail investors. 

Under consumer protection measures, lending and staking services for retail customers are now restricted to reduce risk exposures. 

Stablecoin Regulation in 2025:

Stablecoin issuers must be regulated under the Payment Services  Act for providing “stablecoin issuance services”. 

The only stablecoins that follow strict requirements set by MAS, ensuring higher standards of solvency and consumer protection, will be labeled as “MAS-regulated stablecoin.”

Updates stricter marketing and promotion rules:

In 2025, the MAS expanded its regulatory update regarding security for investors in crypto trading.

This amendment includes measures to protect customer assets, disclose risks to retail customers, and handle conflicts of interest.

What The Government and Regulators are Saying 

Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS): Serves as the country’s central bank and integral financial regulator. It oversees licensing businesses that provide “digital payment tokens”, such as crypto exchanges and digital wallet providers.

MAS enforces anti-money laundering (AML), counter-terrorist financing (CFT), and KYC standards for crypto investors. It prohibits misleading tactics, protecting the users from crypto fraud. 

Crypto License in Singapore 2025

The license regulation started from June 30, clarified that the Digital token service providers (DTSPs) will have to cease activities without an official MAS-regulated license. 

There are no big changes to what licensed providers can do, and no transition period is given for service providers. 

Crypto Tax 2025 in Singapore 

No Capital Gains Tax: Singapore does not impose capital gains tax on profit from selling or trading cryptocurrencies. Selling or buying crypto as a personal investment is entirely tax-free. 

Income tax: Trading crypto as a business or receiving it as a payment for goods or services is subject to Singapore’s standard income tax. This law applies to all professional traders and crypto-related businesses. 

Goods and Services Tax (GST): An 8% GST applies to fees in crypto transactions. However, buying and selling cryptocurrencies themselves are generally exempt from GST. Airdrops, mining, Staking, and ICOs are subject to income tax.

Reporting: The crypto in income tax is required to be reported annually. The deadline for e-filing is April 18, 2025, and for paper filing, it is April 15, 2025. 

Crypto Adoption in 2025

29% of Singapore residents have owned or currently own cryptocurrency. This marks a significant decrease from 40% in 2024. 

23% of crypto users in Singapore believe Bitcoin will surpass $250,000 by 2030. Currently, 28% of crypto investors hold a memecoin.

Government Holdings: No official disclosure yet; policies prioritize fostering an innovative and responsible digital asset ecosystem while mitigating risks.
