Cryptocurrency Taxation in Spain

Taxability and Classification

Cryptocurrency transactions in Spain typically fall under the Income Savings Tax Capital Gains category. This means that gains from the sale or exchange of cryptocurrencies are subject to taxation. The Agencia Tributaria, Spain's tax authority, considers cryptocurrency as a capital asset with gains subject to capital gains tax.

Absence of Specific Crypto Tax

As of December 2023, Spain does not impose any specific crypto-related taxes. However, the general tax principles applicable to capital gains also apply to cryptocurrency gains.

Principles of Taxation for Individuals

For individual investors in Spain, the taxation of cryptocurrency generally follows these principles: * Gains from the sale or exchange of cryptocurrencies are subject to capital gains tax. * The tax rate depends on the amount of gains and the individual's overall income. * Losses from cryptocurrency transactions can be offset against gains. * Crypto-to-crypto transactions are not taxable events unless they result in a net gain.
