Turkish investors in the cryptocurrency market hold a notable position globally, especially with the substantial trading volume in Turkish Lira (TRY) pairs. The daily trading volume surpasses 20 billion TL even on local exchanges, prompting the Ministry of Treasury and Finance to address the matter. A comprehensive tax regulation is on the horizon, anticipated to generate 226 billion TL in revenue, with a focus on cryptocurrencies.

Understanding Cryptocurrency Taxation in Turkey

While the tax legislation for traditional stock exchanges has been delayed, recent information indicates a persistent stance on regulating cryptocurrencies. Insider reports shed light on the tax regulation specifics, emphasizing two primary taxation methods for cryptocurrencies to yield an annual revenue of 3.7 billion TL:

  • Transaction tax of 0.03% applied to buying and selling transactions.
  • Income tax levied on profits generated.

Finance Minister Mehmet Simsek

Reports from Bloomberg Global contradict the finance minister's statement ruling out income tax, confirming two elements in the proposed legislation. Apart from cryptocurrency matters, the legislative package encompasses a range of provisions, including raising the foreign travel tax to 1500 TL and setting minimum income tax thresholds. The finalized version of this proposal is expected to be unveiled post the holiday period.
