Abstract: The Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins Act (GENIUS Act or Act), which was enacted on July 18, 2025, provides a comprehensive regulatory framework for issuers of “payment stablecoins.” Under section 3(a) of the GENIUS Act (12 U.S.C. 5902(a)), only permitted payment stablecoin issuers may issue a payment stablecoin in the United States, subject to certain exceptions and safe harbors. Under section 4(c) of the GENIUS Act (12 U.S.C. 5903(c)), State-qualified payment stablecoin issuers with a consolidated total outstanding issuance of payment stablecoins of not more than $10 billion may opt for State regulation provided that (i) the State payment stablecoin regulator has submitted a certification, including an attestation that the State regulatory regime meets the criteria for substantial similarity established by Treasury, and (ii) the Stablecoin Certification Review Committee (the Committee) has approved the State-level regulatory regime upon determining that it meets or exceeds the standards and requirements described in section 4(a) of the GENIUS Act (12 U.S.C. 5903(a)). Pursuant to section 2(27) of the GENIUS Act (12 U.S.C. 5901(27)), the Secretary of the Treasury chairs the Committee, which also includes the Chair of the Board (or the Vice Chair for Supervision, if delegated by the Board Chair) and the Chairman of the FDIC. The GENIUS Act directs Treasury and each of the primary Federal payment stablecoin regulators to promulgate regulations to carry out their respective responsibilities under the Act. With respect to the Committee’s review of State-level regulatory regimes under section 4(c) of the Act (12 U.S.C. 5903(c)), the Act requires States to submit certifications to the Committee, including an attestation “in a form prescribed by the [Committee],” and directs the Committee to follow certain procedures. The Committee is issuing the interim final rule (the IFR) to prescribe the form of certifications and to implement the procedures necessary for the Committee to carry out its statutory review responsibilities under section 4(c) of the Act (12 U.S.C. 5903(c)). The Act expressly authorizes the Committee to prescribe the form of certifications and to implement procedures governing its review of those certifications. Accordingly, the IFR establishes 12 CFR part 1522, which prescribes the required forms, supporting documentation, and procedures governing submission, review, approval, denial, resubmission, and annual recertification of State certifications under section 4(c) of the GENIUS Act. As relevant to this Supporting Statement, the IFR requires State payment stablecoin regulators to submit information necessary for the Committee to evaluate whether the applicable State-level regulatory regime satisfies the statutory requirements for approval.
