Finland Cryptocurrency Tax
Detailed cryptocurrency tax rates and rules for Finland in 2026.
Cryptocurrency gains in Finland are taxed as capital income at 30% (up to €30,000) and 34% (above €30,000). Each disposal (sale, exchange, or use for payment) is a taxable event, including crypto-to-crypto exchanges.
