The post Vietnam Proposes 0.1% Tax on Crypto Transactions Under New Regulatory Framework appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Vietnam is moving closer to formally regulating cryptocurrency trading, with a new draft policy that treats digital assets similarly to traditional securities. The proposal, circulated by the Ministry of Finance for public feedback, introduces a transaction-based tax system while tightening oversight of crypto exchanges. 0.1% Levy on Crypto Transfers Under the proposed framework, individuals trading or transferring cryptocurrencies through licensed service providers would be charged a 0.1% personal income tax on the value of each transaction. This mirrors the tax structure currently applied to stock trading in Vietnam. The levy would apply to all investors, regardless of residency, whenever a crypto transfer is executed within the regulated system. At the same time, the draft clarifies that crypto transfers and trading would be exempt from value-added tax, signaling that the government views digital assets more as financial instruments than consumer goods. Corporate Investors Face Profit-Based Taxation Companies and institutional investors would be taxed differently. Profits generated from crypto trading would fall under the standard 20% corporate income tax regime. This tax would be calculated after deducting acquisition costs and related expenses, aligning crypto-related earnings with other business income. .article-inside-link { margin-left: 0 !important; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; border-left: 0; border-right: 0; padding: 10px 0; text-align: left; } .entry ul.article-inside-link li { font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; font-weight: 600; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 0; display: inline-block; } .entry ul.article-inside-link li:last-child { display: none; } Also Read : China’s New Crypto Ban Explained: Stablecoins, RWA, and the Digital Yuan , Clear Definitions and High Entry Barriers The proposal also formally defines crypto assets as digital assets that rely on cryptographic or similar technologies for issuance, storage, and transaction verification.
