The Japanese government plans to postpone the implementation of the tax separation policy for cryptoassets (virtual currencies) until January 1, 2028. According to political sources, although the market expects that the new tax system may be implemented in 2027 after the amendment of the Financial Commodities Exchange Law is passed by the parliament next year, the government prefers to implement tax reform after confirming the market conditions under the Gold and Commercial Law.
At present, Japanese crypto trading profits are classified as "miscellaneous income", and when combined with income such as wages, the maximum tax rate can reach 55% (including resident tax). Investors and industry groups have long called for it to be changed to the same 20% separate taxation system as stocks. The government said the main reason for the delay is that "investor protection measures still need to be improved."
