  • French Finance Committee Approves Amendments on Stablecoin Exchange Tax and Crypto Exit Tax

    On October 10, Decrypt reported that the Finance Committee of the French National Assembly approved two amendments related to cryptocurrency taxation this week: starting January 1, 2027, exchanges of stablecoins regulated under MiCA will be considered taxable sales; and an exit tax will be imposed on taxpayers who have been French tax residents for at least six of the past ten years and have moved abroad with crypto assets totaling over 800,000 euros. On October 9, the committee voted 31 to 3 to reject the budget revenue portion, and the full National Assembly will review based on the government's original text.

The stablecoin amendment was proposed by Nicolas Sansu, a member of the left-wing GDR party group, along with 16 co-signers, and does not set a new tax rate but aims to include the revenue under France's existing 31.4% flat tax system. The committee also passed an amendment allowing crypto asset losses to be carried forward for ten years to offset future gains.
