Thailand’s government has introduced a forward-looking tax exemption for cryptocurrency investments, waiving capital gains taxes through 2029 when trades are executed via regulated domestic exchanges.
Deputy Finance Minister Amornvivat emphasized this measured approach balances innovation with oversight, requiring FATF-compliant AML procedures while removing tax barriers.
The policy specifically supports crypto’s use in technology funding and economic development.
Official estimates project the measure will yield a minimum 1 billion baht economic benefit, demonstrating how strategic tax policy can stimulate emerging financial sectors.
