The core document is the "Licensed Stablecoin Issuer Regulatory Guidance," and the most significant guidance document in the current application phase is the "Stablecoin Issuer Licensing Regime Summary Description." Looking at the timeline, the Monetary Authority encourages prospective applicants to reach out to regulators by August 31st, with mature applicants having until September 30th to apply.
