The registration number for Binance Nordics AB is 66822.

Richard Teng, head of Binance Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa, commented: "Binance continues to demonstrate our commitment to maintaining global standards through close collaboration with regulators. Obtaining registration approval in Sweden is the result of months of hard work by our team, solidifying our commitment to the Swedish market and users. We are very grateful for the support and permission of the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority throughout the entire application process. Sweden is now one of the many global jurisdictions that have granted regulatory approval to Binance."
Roy van Krimpen, head of the Nordic and Benelux Economic Union, added: "Sweden fully complies with EU laws and has additional local requirements, so we have been very cautious to ensure that Binance Nordics AB meets strict standards for risk and anti-money laundering policies. Our next major task will be to launch local operations, including recruiting local talent, organizing more events, and providing more crypto education in Sweden."
