According to the proposal, crypto platforms will be required to withhold tax on client profits quarterly, regardless of their status or residency. The president will have the authority to adjust the tax rate between 0% and 20%, depending on the asset type and holding conditions. An additional fee of 0.03% per transaction will be levied on providers.
This development could significantly impact Turkey’s crypto sector and set the tone for the country’s taxation framework on digital assets going forward.
