Slovenia’s finance ministry proposes a 25% tax on cryptocurrency capital gains starting in 2026 to close tax loopholes. The tax applies to profits from selling crypto for fiat or goods but not crypto-to-crypto swaps. This aims to align crypto gains with other investments like stocks and bonds, with taxpayers required to file annual returns by March 31.

The proposed tax could bring in €2.5-€25 million annually, based on government estimates. Slovenia seeks public feedback on the plan, which could take effect next year. The move follows data showing Slovenia has the highest share of cryptocurrency owners in the euro area, with 15% of adults holding digital currencies in 2023, up from 8% in 2022.
