Persons earning income from the transfer of virtual currency are obliged to declare this income and the income tax due is calculated by the taxpayer by applying the rate of 10% on the gain. The clarification is made by the National Tax Administration Agency, which has published an information material on the tax treatment of income earned by individuals from the transfer of virtual currency.

The introduction of rules for declaring and taxing income from cryptocurrency transactions has led to a collapse in the amounts declared, but also in the taxes collected by the state on these transactions, an Economedia analysis shows. Twenty-five times fewer taxpayers declared income from virtual currency transactions year-on-year, and state receipts fell 20-fold. In fact, only 1300 Romanians declared such income last year.

The National Tax Administration Agency has prepared and published a brochure on the tax treatment of income from virtual currency transfers, available on the website www.anaf.ro, in the Taxpayer Assistance section.
