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.

Satisfied Clients

Tania and her team have been great with their advice and handling of my legal matters with the ATO and TPB.

Thank you Tania, Bernie, Alice, Coco and the others over the journey.

The legal advice has been A++, as was expected.

What was not expected was the caring and empathetic way the services was provided through the entire process. Legal matters are very stressful, and I felt that the Waterhouse team had my back along the way.

I really appreciate that Tania still checks in on me from time to time, even after the matter has been settled.

The Waterhouse team were supportive when needed, but also there was a good dose of reality when that was needed as well.

I certainly hope I will never need their services again, but I can sleep easier with the feeling I know where to go if I ever have another legal matter involving the ATO or TPB.

God bless to the Waterhouse team – my family’s future is safer and more secure by having you on my side.

Thank you for A++ help

Responsive, knowledgeable tax advice

I searched for a long time for responsive, knowledgeable tax advice. I finally found it with Waterhouse Lawyers.

I had very technical matters to address, and Tania Waterhouse invested many more hours than I paid for, and successfully resolved the issues. I am very happy with the outcome.

Equally valuable was the personal touch Tania brought to our interactions. I will use Waterhouse Lawyers’ services for all my future needs.

I unreservedly recommend them for any taxation matters.
