Crypto Taxes
Income tax by transaction type
Deductible
The Financial Administration distinguishes business activity from other income and permits costs or expenses only under its rules. Keep acquisition price, market value, dates, and records for each transaction; do not infer one universal deduction.

Deadline
The Financial Administration states that individuals file and pay 2025 income tax by 31 March 2026. Extensions require notice and can have different conditions. Confirm your category before filing.

Since 2025, tax law uses the term crypto asset. Official guidance treats exchanges for property, another crypto asset, or a service, and paid transfers as sales. The tax category depends on the facts, including business activity; no single rate or calculator is shown.
