Newly published FINANCIAL CRIMES INVESTIGATION BOARD GENERAL CIRCULAR

(SIRA NO: 29)

According to MASAK's new regulation:

🔸 Crypto assets can be withdrawn at least 48 hours after the purchase/exchange/deposit transaction.
🔸 If this is your first withdrawal transaction, the duration is 72 hours.

•On July 1st, you deposited USDT into your TR account.
•If you want to send this USDT to Global on the same day, this process:
•If it's your first withdrawal, it can take place on July 4th.
•If you have made a withdrawal before, it may occur on July 3.

This is not only for different local platforms;
🌍 It is also applicable for transfers made to foreign exchanges like Global.

So when making your investment plan, be sure to take these timeframes into account.
Although the transfer may seem instantaneous, there is now a "waiting room" first.

3. Transfer Limits for Stable Crypto Assets
•A threshold of 3,000 USD daily and 50,000 USD monthly has been introduced for stablecoin transfers.
•If the necessary identity verification procedures have been completed, these limits can be doubled.

4. Mandatory Transaction Description
•It is mandatory to obtain a description of at least 20 characters from the user that explains the content of the transaction in all crypto transfers.

5. Exceptional Cases – Liquidity & Arbitrage Transactions
•Liquidity provision, market making, or arbitrage transactions may be exempt from some of the above measures with the approval of the board.
However, these users will be continuously monitored, and if any use outside the purpose of the transaction is detected, measures will be reapplied.

6. Custodians and Inter-Platform Transfers
•User transfers made by custodial institutions are also subject to the same restrictions.
•However, these restrictions do not apply to transfers arising from capital market legislation.
