Russia: Rosfinmonitoring clarifies AML requirements for mining activities

On 4 September, Rosfinmonitoring published Letter No.70 on mining-related AML obligations. It covers miners conducting specified transactions for clients and pool organisers distributing digital currency.

The guidance addresses identification, internal controls and reporting. These participants need not register with Rosfinmonitoring; the relevant registers are maintained by the Federal Tax Service.
