Do Bitcoins have Tax??

[BlackPanda]

As far as I know Bitcoin itself doesn't have taxes, it's not regulated that way. But if you trade Bitcoin and exchange it to fiat, especialy if you are doing this through your bank account you should report that to your local tax authorities as a kind of the income and on that you should pay taxes.

it is one of the advantages. many people choose not to pay taxes because they want to get larger transactions and also without any deductions. of course it will help them to maintain their wealth.

but it is not justified. as a country will be very good when countries get a tax payment from the community. This will be controversial because there are negative and positive sides.

Depends on the country you live in.
For example, if you live in US you have to pay taxes from btc income, otherwise it would be considered as tax evasion.

yes i am also agree with you that still there is no tax on bitcoin, and in fact the reason is that bitcoin have not yet consider bitcoin as legal currency, but i think government must now thinking about  bitcoin to turn it as legal currency.

Bitcoin has no tax , it only has transaction fee for miners for transaction speed purposes but it depends on you. That is the reason why many have their own Bitcoin business because they don't pay taxes.

so if you are not US citizen then you don't have to worry about tax
for US bitcoiner just avoid to use coinbase as your exchanger service if you won't be taxed
IRS will never collect any info outside coinbase for tax
so basically bitcoin is free tax!

no there is no type of tax or excess charges while transfering your coins all it have is a mining fees which is a verification step made for keeping the balance in bitcoin system and side by side also helps verifying each and every single transaction and this fees is also adjustable according to users need

It's definitely the mining fee not the tax. I do not mind it as it's only a small amount of charge compared to using a other legitimate online processor that they would charge you base on the amount transacted.

Yeah , both of you right but still I am not sure that there is no tax for Bitcoin . For example if we made the deal with a Bitcoin trader then he will make buy/sell Bitcoin online with his bank money so he needs to pay tax for that fiat money deal ( for Bitcoin ) because his daily give/take will make his income very big that will be result onto tax to make your deal legit .

To the best of my knowledge there are no direct or indirect taxes on bitcoin here in my country but rumors has it that there's gonna be taxes on the holding of bitcoins soon considering bitcoins as assets. That's all I know till now. I'll keep updating you guys as I come to know some new developments in this regard.

You don't need to pay any tax for the government when dealing with bitcoins as it is not considered real money,only when you convert the bitcoins to real fiat then you may pay taxes.

If you by taxes you meant to fees,then yes,you need to pay a small fee for the miners for each transaction you make.

Yeah i couldn't agree more with you that bitcoin didn't cut for any tax . It is one of the advantage from using bitcoin.
And if you see every transactions bitcoin is only additional fees less than 1 dollars. Usually when i make a transactions around 10 - 30 dollars in bitcoin, the fees only 0.1 - 0.2 dollars and every my transactions has a different fees. But I didn't think it was a tax.

In my country, as of now bitcoin don't have any tax. Maybe if bitcoin is recognize by a government to be  a legal Curency in a country, i think thats that time bitcoin have a tax.

   Every time we transfer money or bitcoins we pay something, they call that transactions fees. Its something like a tax and that will always be present, we can call it with other names but it is the same thing.
   In country I live in there is no law about bitcoins, and when I asked people from my place how they sell bitcoins for our currency they tell me they pay just transaction fees and exchange fees, and all that can goes to 7 %. What they can do more, if they tax bitcoin with additional 20 % that will be a lot.

Bitcoin could consider has tax if you send it (fees) as we know but in several countries which already have regulations about bitcoin, users indirectly pay the taxes if they deal with exchangers, but overall we can't avoid taxes if you do legal transaction in a country.

What you are saying is right. It is always good to show the entry in tax and pay tax according to it. In my country i show Bitcoin earning and Tradings as shortterm profit and loss. And balance which i keep in other Wallet i Show as Shortterm Investment and pay tax according to it.

Wow, you're being honest dude. I don't know in my country if they are really that strict to require bitcoin earners to declare their earnings and pay taxes on it. I have no idea because I do not pay taxes with my earnings here but my salary was deducted with tax so I guess that would already be enough to comply with the existing tax laws. At the end of the day, I can still call my self compliant enough.

Even if you transfer more then that, the transaction fee remains the same.
It everything depends on the memory your transaction takes place, which is totally depends on the amount of outputs and the amount of inputs your transaction has.
Also if you have a multi-sig address, it may grow the transaction size and require you to add more fees to the tx.

no , i don't see there is rule from government about bitcoin tax because in my opinion each tax need a government rule
