Is Webull MiCA-licensed?
Status as of 18 July 2026 · checked against the official ESMA register
Yes — Webull is MiCA-licensed: authorised as a CASP by AFM (Netherlands) in Jun 2026. Webull’s European entity was authorised by the Dutch AFM on 30 June 2026 — one day before the MiCA backstop — for custody and order handling.
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 AFM. It is not a guarantee against investment losses.

Common questions
Who regulates Webull in the EU?
Webull is authorised as a crypto-asset service provider (CASP) by AFM in Netherlands, with the licence granted in Jun 2026. The authorisation is recorded in the ESMA register under the entity Webull Securities (Europe) B.V. — which is what makes it MiCA-compliant under Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 (often written MiCAR).
Can Webull serve customers across the whole EEA?
A CASP licence can be passported across the EEA, but we have not confirmed Webull's passporting notifications — check the ESMA register entry for the countries it covers.
Does MiCA protect my funds on Webull?
MiCA requires authorised CASPs to segregate client crypto-assets and funds, follow conduct and disclosure rules, and answer to AFM. It is not a deposit guarantee — crypto-assets remain high-risk and can lose value.
