Thailand Approves 5-Year Crypto Tax Exemption

On June 17, 2025, the Cabinet approved a resolution to grant a five-year exemption from capital gains tax on profits derived from the sale of cryptocurrency. The objective of this policy is to promote Thailand as a global hub for digital assets. However, the tax exemption will apply exclusively to transactions conducted through licensed digital asset trading platforms operating within Thailand.

This initiative, proposed by the Ministry of Finance, aims to support Thailand’s role as a Digital Asset Hub. It specifically exempts individuals from paying personal income tax on capital gains earned from digital asset transactions made through operators regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of Thailand, effective from January 1, 2025, to December 31, 2029.
