TREE NEWS update: Greece has approved a 10% tax on cryptocurrency gains starting in 2027, with an exemption for investors whose annual net gains do not exceed 500 euros. The measure sets a flat rate on digital-asset profits and introduces a threshold below which no tax applies. It takes effect at the start of 2027.
Greece approves 10% tax on crypto gains starting 2027
Greece's move signals that EU member states are building out their own crypto tax regimes ahead of the bloc-wide reporting framework, and the flat rate plus a small-gain threshold suggests a design meant to be administrable rather than punitive. The immediate effect falls on Greek-resident holders who realize gains, though the exemption keeps smaller participants out of scope. The open question is how the threshold is measured in practice — netting across assets and years — since that will determine how many people actually cross into taxable territory.
