Greece Approves 10% Tax on Cryptocurrency Gains

Greece’s parliament approved a bill imposing a 10% capital-gains tax on cryptocurrencies, Reuters reported on November 5.

Annual crypto gains of up to €500 are exempt under the bill. A finance-ministry official told Reuters that implementation directives, including transparency and audit rules, would be published in the coming weeks. Operational details therefore remain incomplete.

The measure concerns Greece, not a single EU-wide crypto tax. Reuters notes that European countries do not share a unified taxation system for the sector. Individuals and businesses should consult the final law and applicable guidance in their jurisdiction; this report is neither investment advice nor personalized tax advice.
