Crypto tax policy in Vietnam (from 27/03/2026)
1. Individuals (retail):
Tax: 0.1% on each transaction
Applicable: all transactions, regardless of profit or loss
2. Domestic enterprises:
Tax: 20% on profits (similar to corporate income tax)
3. Foreign organizations:
Tax: 0.1% on the revenue of each transaction
4. VAT (Value Added Tax):
0% → crypto is not subject to VAT
5. Important notes:
How to calculate the timing of income: same as securities
Applicable to both individuals/organizations inside & outside the country
This is a pilot phase
⚠️ Attention, everyone:
0.1%/transaction ≠ low if you trade a lot
→ Example: trade 100 orders/day = cumulative tax fee very large
No distinction between profit/loss
→ Losses still incur taxes
Similar to securities tax model
→ The state prioritizes easy collection – hard to evade, instead of optimizing absolute fairness
📌 What should Vietnamese users prepare?
1. Control the frequency of transactions
If you are scalping / trading high-frequency → profits are heavily eroded
Consider switching to:
Swing trading
Medium-term holding
2. Transaction tracking (mandatory)
You need:
Complete trading history
Export from the exchange (Binance, OKX…)
If not tracking: → very easy to be inaccurate when declaring taxes
3. Optimize account structure
Individuals: incur 0.1%/order
Enterprises: incur 20% profits
👉 If you:
Trade large capital
Have stable profits
→ Need to consider switching to an enterprise model to optimize taxes
4. Note about cash flow
Because taxes are levied on transactions → on-chain / off-chain can both be tracked in the future
→ Therefore:
Be transparent about cash flow from the beginning
Avoid the mindset of “completely evading taxes”
5. Prepare for a tighter phase
Stricter KYC
Reporting requirements from exchanges
Connect bank data
→ “not managed” → will be managed later
