Greece to tax crypto gains at 15%

  • —15% rate applies only to net gains after deducting trading fees
  • —First €500 of annual profit is tax-exempt
  • —Crypto-to-crypto swaps and staking rewards are not taxed until sold for fiat
  • —Net losses can be carried forward against future gains for up to five years
Why it matters: Greece closes a tax gap and lands mid-range in the EU, where rates run from 8% in Cyprus to 30% in France.
