Which EU authority supervises MetaMask?

MetaMask is not under direct CASP supervision — see the rationale above for whether MiCA applies.

Where can EU users access MetaMask?

MetaMask is outside MiCA scope as a non-CASP product, so MiCA-based EU access restrictions do not apply. National consumer protection and tax rules still apply per jurisdiction.

Is MetaMask MiCA-licensed?

Outside MiCA ScopeMetaMask does not require MiCA authorisation.

Pure non-custodial wallets that do not facilitate trading do not perform CASP activities under MiCA. MetaMask's Swap and Bridge features route through third-party liquidity providers; the wallet itself does not custody user assets.

What this means for retail users

MetaMask does not require MiCA authorisation because it does not perform crypto-asset service provider activities. MiCA applies to entities that custody, trade, or facilitate crypto-asset services for clients — not to hardware-wallet manufacturers, tax-reporting software, or fully decentralised protocols.

Self-custody browser/mobile wallet for Ethereum + EVM chains. EU retail users can use MetaMask without MiCA-status concerns, but national consumer-protection, tax, and other relevant laws still apply per jurisdiction.
