Is Robinhood MiCA-licensed?
Status as of 18 July 2026 · checked against the official ESMA register
Yes — Robinhood is MiCA-licensed: authorised as a CASP by Bank of Lithuania (Lithuania) in May 2025. The US broker’s EU arm was among the first firms MiCA-licensed in Lithuania (May 2025), covering custody, execution, order handling and transfers for its EU crypto offering.
What this means for you: You are dealing with an EU-supervised firm: MiCA's conduct, disclosure and client-asset segregation rules apply, and complaints can be escalated to Bank of Lithuania. It is not a guarantee against investment losses.

Common questions
Who regulates Robinhood in the EU?
Robinhood is authorised as a crypto-asset service provider (CASP) by Bank of Lithuania in Lithuania, with the licence granted in May 2025. The authorisation is recorded in the ESMA register under the entity Robinhood Europe UAB — which is what makes it MiCA-compliant under Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 (often written MiCAR).
Can Robinhood serve customers across the whole EEA?
A CASP licence can be passported across the EEA, but we have not confirmed Robinhood's passporting notifications — check the ESMA register entry for the countries it covers.
Does MiCA protect my funds on Robinhood?
MiCA requires authorised CASPs to segregate client crypto-assets and funds, follow conduct and disclosure rules, and answer to Bank of Lithuania. It is not a deposit guarantee — crypto-assets remain high-risk and can lose value.
