Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework.

(CARF) January 1, 2026.

Europe and the UK + over 40 countries
Exchanges and crypto platforms,
will report user identity + transaction data to tax authorities.

Making crypto asset transactions more transparent for tax purposes.
Detecting tax evasion and unreported activities.
Automating cross-border information sharing.
Similar to the system where bank account information is centrally reported, data will now be collected and shared for crypto transactions as well.

No taxes yet.
But the privacy era is ending.
Transparency and oversight are increasing.

Important: Along with this, there will be a combined effect with DAC8 in Europe, which introduces more comprehensive rules that could require US or other country exchanges to report data of EU customers.

Initial actual reports will go to tax authorities in 2027, but data collection will be mandatory starting January 2026.

From 2027 onwards, cross-border automatic data sharing begins.
