Cryptocurrency Tax

< Previous Service < Previous Service < Previous Service

The law around cryptocurrency tax is complex and on the radar with the Australian Tax Office. In 2020 the ATO issued approximately 350,000 notices to cryptocurrency investors.

It is important that you understand your tax obligations and keep accurate accounting records.

Waterhouse Lawyers have expertise in the crypto tax field; with specialised articles featured in both The Tax Institute and Thomson Reuters Tax Bulletin.

We understand crypto tax can be a grey area. Our expert cryptocurrency tax lawyers can help clarify topics such as:

Cryptocurrency and Capital Gains Tax;
CGT on Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs) when the value of the cryptocurrency is nil;
Converting cryptocurrency to fiat currency;
Tax laws around the sale or gift crypto;
Crypto-to-crypto trading;
Using crypto to obtain goods or services;
Personal use asset exemptions from CGT;
Chain splits of different versions of cryptocurrency;
Crypto tax reporting requirements to the ATO.

Good morning Tania,

Thank you again for all your help with the AustralianTaxation Office (ATO) Super Guarantee negotations.

I would like to thank you and your associates from the bottom of my heart, for your tireless work and efforts without I have no doubt I would not be sitting here today.

Hi Lamees,

Thank you for helping to get our GIC remitted on our tax debt. What a successful outcome.

You have been wonderfully helpful and empathetic through this whole stressful tax debt process. I really don’t know how we would have managed without you!

Kindest Regards

Thank you Lamees for helping with the tax debt GIC remission

Forever Grateful

Tania, I just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU for all you have done.

An ATO audit that was turning very ugly, thanks to an extremely uncooperative accountant, has now had an excellent result! I knew I needed professional help and finding you through an internet search was a godsend. You were able to turn this horrible situation around and knowing I had you in my corner, helped put my mind at ease.

Now today you’ve told me it’s all over, the review is complete and we’ve had a great success – what a relief. I can now breathe and refocus on my business.

Thank you Tania – you’re a star and I wouldn’t hesitate recommending you and your firm.

Dear Tania and the Team,

I can’t thank you enough for your meticulous work and dedication. You’ve once again achieved an outstanding result, and I’m truly grateful. Taking on the ATO twice on my behalf-and succeeding both times- speaks volumes about your professionalism and remarkable expertise. It means a great deal to have such a capable caring, and determined team looking out for me. Thank you for the expert and personal care you have shown throughout.

With Heartfelt thanks,
