MiCAR Title II Notification Portal

23 October 2026

 Coming Soon: Submitters seeking to make a submission of Crypto-Assets Other than Asset-Referenced Tokens or E-Money Tokens notification to the Central Bank of Ireland (the “Central Bank”), will be required to submit the MiCAR Title II notification, modification and all other related post-notification submissions, through the Central Bank Portal.

A system guide will be published at the end of Q4 2026, allowing submitters to familiarise themselves with the Central Back Portal and the new MiCAR Title II submission process, in advance of the launch date.

The Central Bank Portal offers several benefits to submitters including:

  • Streamlined submission process: A single secure platform for processing all related notification submissions.
  • Improved transparency: Clear visibility of the status of a notification and any follow-up requests.
  • Secure messaging: A dedicated and secure communications channel to exchange messages and process queries.
  • Notification & document retrieval: The ability to securely access and retrieve previously submitted documentation.
