Federal MSB registration is not a state money-transmitter licence. FinCEN Form 107 plus the state MTL grid (and BitLicense where NY is in scope) is the filing picture.
Federal registration
- MSB FinCEN — MSB registration
- Form FinCEN Form 107 (PDF)
- Rule 31 CFR 1022.380 — registration
- Updates Subscribe — FinCEN Updates Email list for rulemaking and BSA notices.
State & NY
- BitLicense NY DFS — virtual currency businesses
State MTL applications and CoC consents are filed per state — keep a grid; do not treat FinCEN alone as “US licensed.”
