As an individual in Belarus, crypto gains are tax‑free only when buying and selling through domestic High‑Tech Park (HTP)–registered platforms, but trading on foreign exchanges or in most peer‑to‑peer deals is taxed at 13% of turnover (and 26% if you do not comply), with no lower tax for long‑term holding.
“The nation regulated operations with “digital tokens,” including mining and trading, with a decree signed by President Alexander Lukashenko in 2017, which went into force the following year. The document exempted all legal cryptocurrency transactions from taxation. However, a later presidential decree, from September 2024, significantly limited the scope of the benefits. Since the beginning of 2025, the latter applies only to assets bought and sold through domestic platforms registered as residents of the High-Tech Park (HTP) hub in Minsk. If the transfers are made between private individuals or via foreign trading platforms, which is allowed in a limited number of cases, 13% is due of the turnover, excluding expenses and costs. And if a taxpayer fails to submit their return and pay the levy, or is engaged in prohibited activities, the tax rate jumps to 26%.” — President of the Republic of Belarus
