The first locally regulated platform under the KuCoin name has debuted with the opening of KuCoin’s cryptocurrency exchange in Thailand.

Following an initial invite-only period, the site, which has been licensed by Thailand’s Securities and Exchange Commission, is now accessible to all qualified users.
The exchange incorporates KuCoin’s worldwide technology, tailored to Thai users’ requirements and tastes.

Supported by KuCoin’s SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certifications, it conforms with international security requirements and offers Thai Baht on-ramp and off-ramp alternatives.

With the help of progressive laws and government programs, Thailand continues to be one of the digital asset markets in Southeast Asia with the quickest rate of growth.

It was estimated that 13 million people, or around 18 percent of the population, used cryptocurrencies in 2023.

Thailand is also getting ready to integrate credit cards so that visitors can spend cryptocurrency.

“We are overjoyed to see KuCoin Thailand’s official debut, which marks a critical turning point in our worldwide compliance journey. At KuCoin, user security and compliance have always been fundamental values—not just calculated decisions, but unwavering dedication to our users. Being the first international exchange to register with India’s FIU and now establishing the first local compliant platform in Thailand is a big step in bolstering our presence in the rapidly expanding South East Asian markets and, more importantly, providing users with safe, easily accessible cryptocurrency services wherever they are,” stated BC Wong, CEO of KuCoin.
