Standards laying out how stablecoin issuers such as Tether and Circle can operate in the European Union (EU) are likely to become official toward the end of the year, a spokesperson from the European Banking Authority (EBA) told CoinDesk.

They are included in the 15 technical standards submitted by the EBA, which was tasked with developing them alongside the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), to the European Commission, the EU's executive branch.

Rules allowing crypto companies to serve clients across the 27-nation trading bloc with a single license, known as MiCA, passed into law last year. The stablecoin rules came into force in June, and the rest of MiCA will be in place by December.

The commission is looking over the standards and will need to decide whether to adopt the texts as is or whether to request changes. The standards cover authorization, stress testing and methods to estimate the number and value of transactions among other issues.

Once the commission has signed off, the rules will need to be scrutinized by the European Parliament and European Council. Then they have to go through translation and formal adoption before being published in the official journal. That is where the bloc's official acts and information appear.
