Japan's Financial Services Agency (FSA) and the Ministry of Finance have announced a revised notice, adding five new jurisdictions to which the Travel Rule applies when transferring crypto assets and electronic payment methods requiring notification of sender and receiver information: Anguilla, Oman, Cuba, Dominica, and Botswana. This expands the total number of applicable jurisdictions to 63, and the revision will take effect on August 3. China, Vietnam, and Russia are not yet included because they have not established rules equivalent to Japan's notification obligations; however, Japanese exchanges and others must still collect and retain relevant information for wallet transactions in non-applicable jurisdictions.

Cuba is actually on the list, a bit surprising.

Anguilla and Oman, these small islands and African countries, are all included. This list from Japan is quite interesting.

August 3rd takes effect, leaving little time for the industry to prepare.

China, Vietnam, and Russia are excluded, exchanges are troubled, and non-applicable jurisdictions still have to store data themselves.

The Travel Rule's coverage has expanded again, covering 63 jurisdictions, and compliance costs are soaring.
