Tax Treatment in China

China has effectively banned cryptocurrency trading and mining since September 2021, when the People's Bank of China and other regulators declared all cryptocurrency transactions illegal. Prior to the ban, crypto gains would have been classified as property transfer income subject to 20% individual income tax. While Chinese residents technically should not be engaging in crypto transactions, any gains that are identified would be subject to taxation as property transfer income.

This calculator provides estimates for China. Actual crypto tax may vary depending on your specific circumstances, additional income, and applicable exemptions. Consult a tax professional.
