Thailand’s Crypto-Friendly Stance Continues as it Announces Tax Breaks for Digital Token Issuers to Boost Web3 Growth

As the popularity of cryptocurrencies and the broader blockchain ecosystem continues to grow, so too do concerns about the impact of crypto tax on the industry’s growth. While governments around the world are beginning to take steps to regulate cryptocurrencies and their use, the lack of clarity around tax treatment is hindering the development of the Web3 ecosystem. However, in recent years, Thailand has been positioning itself as a leading destination for cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. In line with this goal, the country has announced tax incentives for companies issuing investment tokens. This move is aimed at attracting more businesses and boosting the economic growth of the Web3 sector. 

Thailand Gains The Spotlight In Crypto Tax

As the tax season is approaching fast, Thailand has given special recognition to the crypto space as it views the industry with a potential of dominating the future. According to a government spokeswoman, Thailand’s cabinet has approved a new policy to offer tax breaks for companies that issue digital tokens for investment. This means that eligible companies can enjoy exemptions on corporate income tax and value-added tax.

The move is part of Thailand’s efforts to promote crypto innovation and support businesses in exploring new ways to raise capital. The policy enables companies to issue investment tokens as an alternative to traditional methods like debentures. As Rachada Dhnadirek, a government spokeswoman, highlighted at a news conference, this move opens up new opportunities for companies to access capital and expand their operations.

Rachada stated that the government predicts digital token offerings to reach 128 billion baht ($3.71 billion) over the next two years. As a result, the government anticipates a loss of tax revenue totaling 35 billion baht.

Thailand Lures Firms With Its Crypto-Friendly Moves

Thailand has emerged as a leading destination for cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. The country has taken steps to regulate the industry and promote innovation, including the introduction of its own cryptocurrency, the Thai Baht Digital (TBD), and tax incentives for investment tokens. However, as the industry continues to evolve, the issue of crypto tax is becoming increasingly important, and Thailand is no exception. 

Thailand’s tax treatment of cryptocurrencies is governed by the country’s Revenue Code, which defines cryptocurrencies as digital assets subject to tax. This means that any gains made from buying and selling cryptocurrencies are subject to capital gains tax at a rate of up to 15%. In addition, cryptocurrency mining is also subject to taxation, although the specifics of this are not yet clear.

Thailand has seen a surge in the popularity of cryptocurrencies in recent years, mainly due to the country’s Securities Exchange Commission’s decision to regulate digital assets. With this regulation in place, more people in Thailand have been willing to invest in cryptocurrencies, leading to increased interest in the industry.

In a move to further boost the industry, the Thai government last year relaxed tax rules in crypto trading. Despite this favorable policy, the country’s central bank and other regulators have banned the use of digital assets as a means of payment, citing concerns over the potential impact on financial stability and the overall economy. While the government has taken steps to promote innovation and support businesses in exploring new ways to raise capital, it is clear that regulators are still cautious about the risks that cryptocurrencies pose to the financial system.

Despite the concerns of regulators, the Thai government’s policies towards cryptocurrencies have generally been positive. In addition to offering tax breaks for investment tokens, the government has launched education campaigns to raise awareness about the tax treatment of cryptocurrencies and encourage compliance in the industry.
