Undeclared Crypto Value In Japan Dropped
Japan’s National Tax Agency (NTA) reported a 19% drop in undeclared income in crypto in 2022, with 615 investigations initiated, up from 444 in 2021.
In 548 cases, the agency found tax violations, a 35% increase from 405 in 2021. However, the average value of undeclared crypto holdings dropped from 36 million Japanese yen which is around $245,000 in 2021 to 30 million yen which is around $206,000 in 2022.
In August, Japanese regulators confirmed that citizens would be exempt from a capital gains tax on unrealized gains in crypto, reducing their tax burden by around 35%.
Japan is among nearly 50 nations that have pledged to “swiftly transpose” the Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework into their domestic law systems.
