Kyrgyzstan to Create a Platform for Screening Crypto Companies for Sanctions Risks

The National Agency for Virtual Assets and Blockchain Technologies (NAVA) is developing a unified digital platform to screen, license, and monitor participants in the virtual asset market. The system will enable the screening of companies, their executives, and ultimate beneficial owners, including against sanctions lists.

The creation of the platform was endorsed by the National Council for the Development of the Virtual Assets and Blockchain Technologies Sector at a meeting chaired by President Sadyr Zhaparov in September 2026.

The platform also provides for the use of blockchain analytics to assess risks and strengthen government oversight.
