Crypto Wealth Could Take A Hit As Slovenia Weighs 25% Tax

Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure

Slovenia’s Finance Ministry released a draft bill that would tax profits from the sale of cryptocurrencies at 25%, potentially sealing the nation’s status as a tax haven for investors in digital assets. The plan is designed to close a loophole that currently excludes individual crypto traders from taxation while businesses are taxed on similar activities.

Tax Changes Target Individual Crypto Investors

According to the proposed rules, Slovenians will remit a quarter of their earnings when exchanging crypto to conventional money such as euros or when they use digital currencies to buy goods and services. The government seeks to establish equitable tax treatment between crypto and conventional investments, which already receive extensive taxation.

The draft law makes an important distinction: exchanging one cryptocurrency for another would remain tax-free. This approach mirrors regulations being adopted across Europe as governments try to balance innovation with tax revenue needs.

— BitcoinWorld Media (@ItsBitcoinWorld) April 17, 2025

Record-Keeping Requirements Will Increase

If enacted, the bill would provide new documentation to crypto holders. They would be required to document all of their transactions and provide annual tax forms by March 31 covering activity from the past year. Businesses receiving more than €500 worth of payments in crypto would be subject to other reporting responsibilities.

The ministry has made exceptions for central bank digital currencies, electronic money, security tokens, and NFTs, which will not be included in this tax regime. These definitions are in line with European Union’s MiCA regulation and Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development’s CARF framework standards.

‘Reset’ Provision Provides Transition Relief

To facilitate the transition, the proposal contains a useful provision for existing crypto holders. All the digital assets held prior to 2026 would get a “reset” on their cost of acquisition, tied to their value on January 1, 2026. This implies early investors will not be taxed on profits that accrued prior to the new regime coming into operation.

Finance Ministry estimates put the revenue from the new crypto tax between €2.5 million and €25 million annually for the government of Slovenia. This range is a function of not knowing how many Slovenians have crypto assets and their potential worth.

Public Feedback Period Now Open

The proposal has been made open for public comment until May 5 by the government, with the targeted law aimed at becoming effective from January 1, 2026, should it get approved by parliament.

The development is a big change for Slovenia, which numerous investors have been viewing as a crypto-friendly jurisdiction. Existing regulations exempt profits earned in cryptocurrencies from tax if trading does not amount to a “permanent business activity” – an expression not precisely defined.
