Timor-Leste currently has no specific tax on individual crypto gains, so private investment profits in cryptocurrency are not taxed, although general income tax rules still apply if it becomes business income.
“Timor-Leste residents are taxable on a worldwide income basis, while non-residents are taxable only on the income sourced from Timor-Leste.[5] ... Timor-Leste individual taxpayers are subject to income tax on their taxable income, which is essentially the difference between gross income (other than from employment) and allowable deductions.[5]” — PwC summary of Timor-Leste tax law (based on national legislation)
