The Kenyan government is implementing stricter regulations on the cryptocurrency sector through the Finance Bill 2026, which is currently under consideration in Parliament. This legislation seeks to amend the Tax Procedures Act, mandating virtual asset service providers (VASPs) to provide detailed user-level reporting. The proposed regulations include severe penalties for non-compliance, which may involve substantial fines or imprisonment. This move signifies a shift towards more comprehensive oversight of digital currencies in Kenya.
