Tax Treatment in Kenya
Kenya has introduced a digital asset tax (DAT) at 3% on the transfer or exchange value of digital assets, including cryptocurrency. This is a final tax for non-residents but an advance tax for residents that can be offset against income tax. Additionally, income from crypto trading may be subject to regular income tax. The Capital Markets Authority has been developing a regulatory framework for digital assets.
This calculator provides estimates for Kenya. Actual crypto tax may vary depending on your specific circumstances, additional income, and applicable exemptions. Consult a tax professional.
