Japan Does Not Tax Unprofitable Crypto Companies
The tax committee of Japan’s ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) accepted a plan to exclude cryptocurrency businesses that issue their own tokens from paying corporation taxes on unrealized gains.
Token issuers are subject to a tax rate of about 35% on unrealized gains for tokens they possess under current corporation tax regulations, assuming their tokens are published on an active market. The taxation of holdings is dependent on their market value at the conclusion of the taxation period.
The suggestion to eliminate the tax on paper gains was included in an interim policy proposal presented by the Web3 project team on Thursday.
It also included recommendations for enacting legislation governing LLC-type decentralized autonomous organizations (DAO), supporting the issuance of yen-based permissionless stablecoins, governance reforms at the Japan Virtual Currency Exchange Association, which handles token screening, and guidelines for auditing crypto companies.
Other tax reform recommendations offered by industry groups included taxing crypto profits at the same rate as stocks and taxing people only when they convert crypto earnings to fiat money. These are unlikely to pass this year and will most likely be revisited in the LDP’s tax negotiations next winter.
As Coincu reported, from 2023, the Financial Services Agency (FSA) and the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry (METI) of Japan will consider corporate taxation for cryptocurrency enterprises.
