Japan recognizes crypto as a financial product in new tax bill
The amendments set up separate crypto taxation at about 20%, down from the prior maximum 55% rate.
Japan has passed a bill that recognizes crypto as a financial product, creating a framework for separate crypto taxation, according to The Block.
The changes include amendments that establish crypto-specific tax treatment, with the effective rate set at roughly 20%.
That level would be a sharp reduction from Japan’s current maximum crypto tax rate of 55%, The Block reported.
