So in Belgium, supposedly if you hodl long enough (>1 year) you pay 0% taxes.

Anon in pic got a "ruling" from the Belgian tax authorities.
He consolidated his Link, hodled for 2 years, and got a 0% tax rate as a result.

I did the same, except I hodld for two and a half years.
I just had an anonymous call with the ruling dept., and he didn't care AT ALL about me hodling for over two years.
All he wanted to know about was the trades that preceded it.
"Oh you traded from ETH to Link back in 2017? Ah that's a taxable event, my dear anon lol."

Hodling for extended time does NOTHING.

There is no clear law basically, I asked to the tax authorities and they told me only good-father long term investments are not taxed but they were unable to tell me if holding btc for 1y is considered a wise investment or not (probably not by their boomer standards and it’s taxed at 33%), I can attach the email conversation here in 3/4 posts

He's supposedly part of the committee that decides on the rulings.
He barely knew what I wrote in the email, he had complete tunnel vision on the trades that happened years ago.

He also kept trying to twist my words.
He asked for a detailed account of my trading history, and when I said "should I explain every bit of my thinking at the time, or just condense it?" he basically told me "No anon you can't lie to us!".

And when I told him I made a few transactions back and forth just to test out how crypto worked, he said "ah but if you spend that much time on crypto then it becomes your profession".

Seriously what in the world of FUCK.

Yes, and they can do that. There's vague reglementation that if you do too many trades they say you're being a professional. This can also happen if you day trade stocks. But it seems like you trade only a couple of times a year? Second professions are taxed at 55%, no matter what IIRC, so he's not bullshitting you. That's why it's better to consult with an accountant now, so that you can get your shit in order and BTFO this faggot in court. Will cost you a few hundred (assumption), but it will spare you the 55% rate. (Which is stupid greedy because that high of a rate makes it worth it to *always* fight their bullshit in court)

Nah, main profession is about that.
If it's a secondary profession, it's 33%.

Could be, I haven't had a lot of experience in the field. Almost nobody has a second job, and if they do, it's "int zwart" like boomers say.

Your surroundings shouldn't know shit. Going to an accountant is just that. Loads of people that don't do anything special have their taxes done by one. If people for some reason have to pry, just say it's your "personenbelasting" for your day job or whatever it is you do. It's none of their business and accountants have a legal duty to not flap their mouths.

Does anyone know what will happen in my case if they ever find out?

In 2017 I made around 50k profit, but I didn't pay the 33% tax in 2018. I then decided to pay it in 2019, so in the wrong year. I never heard anything about it after I did that and they just took my money.

I worked part-time at the time when I made the profits (still am).
Those profits are still held on an exchange since I am too scared to bring them back to a bank account. I've been depositing a few thousand here and there but it's gonna take years at this pace.

Can they still come back and buttfuck me for doing that or levy a 50% tax because I made too much trades? I've read they can only go back 5 years in case of fraud (which I didn't do cuz I paid the tax). 3 years in normal cases, and that term has passed.

I work as a manager in the Tax&Legal department of a big 4 accounting firm in Belgium
crypto is a dangerous investment for Belgians
tax man will judge it as speculative trading and will take 1/3rd of your gains.
banks also need to tip off any money transfers from foreign accounts or crypto brokers larger than 3K to the "bijzondere belastingsinspectie"
not being open about your crypto could also result in tax fraud alligations which in the most extreme cases can result in you being blacklisted which means every employer that ever wants to hire you or any bank you want a mortgage from will get a big red warning when they put your "rijksregisternummer" into the computer
unironically had a client a few months ago that tried to hide his 100K crypto portfolio, got caught when trying to cash out because he wanted to buy a house with his girlfriend and in the end ended up with only 37K after taxes and fines (and our 6,5K bill for our services/advice). he also got blacklisted and he and his girlfriend couldn't get a mortgage because of it. she eventually even dumped him because of it. shit was brutal to be honest

>you cash out in EUR
>your behavior is seen as 'speculation'

So my question is, can I just do my trades for a year, place them in a relatively stable coin (or just USDT) at the end and cash out after 3 years and just say I HODL'd for 3 years so it's no speculation?

You might unironically have to hire a lawyer. When my father sold his own company, that he has built with his own hands for over 20 years, they tried to argue it was speculative trading as well. Go figure.
If the taxman tells you to pay up however, my advice would be to do so, and continue the conversation through legal representation. You will potentially need to go to court to get the money back. The good news is that the interest rate the state pays (if they're wrong) is relatively high at +7%, and it will be compounded if your lawyer asks for it. The downside is that the taxman has attempted this so frequently already, that the govt has changed the law a couple years back stating that you may not claim back your legal fees if you were to win.
He won by the way, after several years.

You can go to NL, they have very low tax on crypto, or LUX but that's really small and probably more expensive. I think this is the cheapest way to cash out, but again a lawyer is needed to make sure you do everything by the book.

The problem, at least in my opinion, is that the rules aren't clear.

Maybe if we wait a while (for crypto adoption) there will be more clarity? Maybe a political party like the VLD or MR takes it up as a point to gain votes for an election.

NL taxes your wealth 1.2% yearly no matter if made investments with it or not. They have a wealth tax. It is cancer.

As for Belgium. You basically need to hold a crypto for 2-3 years then lawyer up and drag them to court saying it is not speculation. Because they 100% will try and fuck you over.

So basically invest a small sum of your money into some coins and wait a long time is not counted as speculation. Same thing happend with BTC.

Buying in having a huge pump then selling is taxed at 33%. If you don't work it viewed as income and taxed as such, 55%.

You can try, but if the amount is big the taxman will say you're trying to dodge taxes and because the rules aren't clear you can expect to pay a lot for a lawyer that might not win your case.

That's the regular answer you could have looked up yourself. 50% if professional (trading for a living), 33% if you declare it as such (if you do this they'll leave you alone most likely since they've got a big chunk of your money) and 0% ... you can try but as I stated above small chance you get away with it if it's a sizable amount of money.

a crypto to crypto trade is not taxable. there are no rules in Belgium right now. You declare or you don't and you pay 33pct tax on your profits. if you don't have any profits (only euros count) then you pay no tax.


stop trying to cuck belgians holy shit.

Important part:
"THE INHERENT RISKS OF CRYPTO MEANS NEVER SAFE HOUSEKEEPER PRINCIPLE"

This is a confirmed ruling, not some larp on a mongolian basket weaving forum. 0% for HODL is LARP. It's either 33% if you declare yourself, or 50% if you try for 0%, they look into what you did (some neet trying to skimp us??) and you get raped to poordom in front of the court.

Most exchanges are foreign, and I think they can't actually force them to give them banking info.
Not sure.

I dont have the belgian citizenship (just my "carte de séjour permanente"), and I don't pay any taxes since I'm a student and only ever had summer jobs under 450h/year. But I live in Belgium and have a belgian bank account.

Do I still need to declare my profits?

So, I just did some calculations. My total crypto buy in is €24450 spread over 3 years. If i cash out now, that would be €109120.
Then i would pay 33% on 109120-24450 = €84670. That's 27941.1 in taxes,
So i can keep my innitial 24450 + (84670- 27941.1 = 56728.9) = 81178.9

You can set up a BV with a goal of daytrading. This way you pay 20 percent, should your profits stay below 100k. On profits more than 100k you pay 29 percent. Look man, if you are doing a lot of it its no longer good housefzther investing. They will find out and they will buttfuck you. This way you pay your dime, let funds accumulate in your BV. Put it in a liquidation reserve, which allows you to get the money out of the BV after 5 year only paying 5 percent tax. This is how i would do it.

Oh yeah, should you liquidate your BV you pay 0 tax on the dividends you get from the liquidation reserve. So, say your BV has 10 million in a liquidation reserve after a decade of trading , you can close up shop and take the lot

dont file it or file it as "dividents and interests" like in the stock market, once its above 800 euros / year you need to pay some tax on it. i guess.

>> No.28135670

>>28135486
then again dividends and interest only count if it is euros. if you get bitcoin, or other crypto as interest it doesn't count. only euros can be taxed in belgiumerino. you have no euros, you pay no tax.


so if you buy a very expensive artwork of picasso for 2000 bitcoins at the end of the bullrun... well you don't pay any tax. cuz you didn't realize any profit.

>> No.28135802

The only thing you can put into the liquidation reserve is money. Not bitcoins or stocks. This is the catch. You have to put away a part of your trading profits every year. You cant reinvest that money into new stock or bitcoin. So say you have 80k profit in a year. I'd put away 25k into a reserve and use the other 55k to continue trading operations.

If you want to bring property into the BV, your BV would have to buy that property from a natural person, ie you. But beware, if you go tits up, the property is no longer yours, its the BVs. That means the bank will sell your house in case of bankruptcy.

I'm Belgian myself and have been doing some research for the last couple of days. All I can find is the same old bullshit: "goede huisvader" (the person who made this up should unironically get shot, what a shitty word), and then the 33% tax and also one up to 50% if it's your main source of income. I'm part of that last group and there's just no way I'll be giving half of my profit to vadertje staat so a bunch of lazy niggers get it without doing anything for. My goal is to hit 7 digits on my portfolio and cash out. So if I want an actual million euro's, I need to have 2m basically so half of that goes to sandniggers and muslims. It's just not happening.
I was thinking of just siphoning a monthly amount from my hardware wallet to an exchange, and then convert it to my bank. They could basically back track it to my hardware wallet and see how much money I really have, but this is Belgium... There's no other country with such incompetence out there. Do you guys think this will work? And with a monthly amount I was thinking like 3 to 4k euro's. It's not much but enough to live comfy. Maybe even less than that. Will they still tax me at the end of the year?
God I fucking hate this country so much...

You missed the part where I said I already fucking paid them, but in the year following the year I was supposed to pay them. It's not correct, but they can't accuse me of fraud because I fucking paid the tax.
The max amount of years they can go back to change your tax return is 3 years, and since my profits were gained in 2017, I don't think they can go back and change my tax return. They can go back 5 years if there's indications of fraud. But I didn't fucking fraud since I paid the tax. Or would paying the tax in the wrong year be constituted as fraud? Fuck em.

Het zijn ambtenaren... Nice, guaranteed pay. Nice pension. But I can tell you from personal experience, most them are really sour people. Not a grain of fun in them. Really serious, really vindictive too. This country is a financial disaster. Before corona we were 12 billion in the red. Meanwhile, in the Netherlands, they have a surplus of money each year they don't even know what to do with. The welfare state has grown so big they really REALLY need every last fucking cent. And how do you do this? You hire the most dreary, vindictive cunts you can find. Its a perpetual culture of squeezing you for everything you have. I've had taxmen come over and go over every single restaurant bill a client had, and start throwing out those that mentioned kids meals... I've seen a taxman go through a client's books for three whole days straight (and they do this at MY OFFICE), to come back and throw all kinds of small bills just so they can net 300 euros more in tax. 300 fucking euros. For what? The worst part is that our client actually loses more money, because the man hours spent on assisting a client in a tax control are like three times that of normal accounting services.
