Thailand: Securities and Exchange Commission approved amendment regulation for tokenised carbon credit trading by digital asset exchanges

On 25 March 2025, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of Thailand approved in principle an amendment to the regulatory criteria allowing digital asset exchanges, brokers, and dealers to facilitate the trading of ready-to-use tokenised carbon credits, tokenised renewable energy certificates (RECs), and tokenised carbon allowances. The revised regulation will apply to digital asset business operators and will require them to establish effective systems for the selection and delisting of digital tokens, as well as to ensure the clear, complete, and sufficient disclosure of token-related information. The SEC will conduct a public consultation with relevant stakeholders prior to finalising the proposed regulatory amendments.
