Asset tokenization in Denmark

We build the platform to tokenize debt, shares and revenue rights in Denmark: investor onboarding, ERC-3643 tokens and a connection to the register of shareholders or the central securities depository, coordinated with the law firm that structures the issuance under the Capital Markets Act or MiCA.

Why Denmark

Why tokenize assets in Denmark?

Denmark has no law of its own on DLT securities, so the token follows company law and capital markets law. Two recent reforms change the picture: since 2025, an ApS can offer its shares to the public through a crowdfunding platform, and since June 2026 the prospectus threshold has been the EU's €12M.

What gets tokenized

Debt, equity and revenue: what gets tokenized in Denmark

Almost every tokenized issuance represents one of these three rights against the issuer. The right determines the vehicle, the applicable law and who keeps the register, and it is settled before the network or the token standard.

How it is issuedDenmark has no DLT securities regime of its own. A bond traded on a trading venue must be recorded with a central securities depository; outside it, the token reflects the register the issuer keeps. The EU DLT Pilot Regime allows that infrastructure to run on DLT, and Finanstilsynet explored that fit in a 2023 test.A buyer of a registered share can only exercise shareholder rights once entered in the ejerbog or after notifying and evidencing the purchase. An A/S can issue its shares through a central securities depository. An ApS can offer them to the public only through crowdfunding or exempt offers, and cannot admit them to a regulated market or an MTF.Classification is decided case by case: if the right is transferable and works like a security, capital markets law and the Prospectus Regulation apply; if it is not a financial instrument and is fungible, it may fall under MiCA. The documentation identifies who must pay and how the right is transferred.
Regulation

Which regulation applies to tokenization in Denmark?

Regulation guide for Denmark

It depends on the right the token represents. If it is a financial instrument, it falls outside MiCA and follows the Capital Markets Act and the EU Prospectus Regulation, supervised by Finanstilsynet. If not, it may fall under MiCA, which Finanstilsynet applies in Denmark through authorizations for service providers and notifications for financial institutions.

Since June 5, 2026, Denmark has applied the EU prospectus threshold of €12M, because Act 1638/2025 repealed its national limit. A crowdfunding platform allows up to €5M per project owner over 12 months and, since 2025, it is also the route for an ApS to offer its shares to the public.

For securities, the EU DLT Pilot Regime allows DLT trading and settlement infrastructures with exemptions; the test Finanstilsynet reported in 2023 explored that fit without approving issuances. We design the structure with the law firm, and authorized entities provide the regulated services.

Methodology

How we tokenize an asset in Denmark, step by step

The four phases of our methodology, with the parties involved in Denmark. The law firm and our engineering team work in parallel from the asset review to investor acquisition.

  1. We review the asset's title, encumbrances and cash flows, and decide with the issuer whether the token will be debt, shares or a revenue right. That sets the vehicle, an A/S or an ApS, the amount and the rules of the issuance.

  2. The law firm classifies the token, drafts the terms and chooses the route: prospectus, exempt offer or crowdfunding platform, which is the only public route for an ApS's shares outside exempt offers.

  3. We configure the white label platform with your brand: investor onboarding with KYC, signature, payment and ERC-3643 tokens carrying the offer's rules. The ejerbog or central securities depository connection and coupon or dividend schedules are custom development.

  4. With the issuer and, where there is one, the placing entity, we prepare the offer page and measure the journey to a paid subscription. After the issuance, the platform handles distributions, transfers between verified investors and reporting.

Platform

What does our white label tokenization platform include in Denmark?

The investor portal, ERC-3643 tokens and issuer console, under your brand. Out of the box it handles onboarding, signing, payment and distributions; anything else your issuance needs, such as a local payment method or a connection to your bank or custodian, we build on the same platform.

Institutional custody, integrated

We integrate custody and key management providers through their APIs, including Fireblocks, BitGo, Coinbase Prime, Anchorage Digital, Copper and Ledger Enterprise.

If the token is a security, custody on behalf of clients is provided by an authorized entity.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about tokenization in Denmark

What we are asked before a project starts.

Talk to our team
  1. Is asset tokenization legal in Denmark?

    Yes. A token can represent a bond, a share or a revenue right: company law and capital markets law apply and, for crypto-assets that are not financial instruments, MiCA. What requires Finanstilsynet authorization is the activity: placing, holding in custody or trading on behalf of others.

  2. Can a Danish ApS tokenize its shares?

    Since January 1, 2025, it can offer them to the public through a crowdfunding platform or in exempt offers: to qualified investors only, to fewer than 150 non-qualified persons per EEA country or for amounts of at least €100,000. What remains prohibited is admitting them to trading on a regulated market or an MTF.

  3. How much can be raised without a prospectus in Denmark?

    Since June 5, 2026, the threshold has been the EU's: €12 million over 12 months, because Denmark repealed its national limit. A crowdfunding platform allows up to €5 million per project owner. Below the threshold there may be other disclosure obligations; the law firm confirms it for each offer.

  4. Who counts as a shareholder if the shares are tokenized?

    Whoever is entered in the ejerbog. Company law provides that the buyer of a registered share can only exercise shareholder rights once entered in that register or after notifying and evidencing the purchase, except for dividends and subscribing for new shares. That is why the platform updates the ejerbog with every token transfer.
