Tax Reporting

**Kiribati does not currently impose a capital gains tax.**. This means that profits derived from the sale or disposal of cryptocurrencies by individuals or businesses, if purely considered capital gains, would **not be subject to capital gains tax** in Kiribati.. If an individual frequently trades crypto with the intent of profit, or earns income through activities like mining, staking, or providing services paid in crypto, this could be considered taxable income.. Kiribati has a progressive individual income tax rate. As of recent information, the rates can vary, but typically involve thresholds and increasing percentages.. If a business engages in crypto-related activities (e.g., operating a crypto exchange, mining operation, or receiving crypto as payment for goods/services) as part of its ordinary business operations, any profits derived would be considered part of its taxable income.
