Slovakia passes crypto tax reporting law under DAC8
The Slovak Parliament (Národná rada) passed Bill No. 706, aligning national legislation with EU Council Directive 2023/2226 (DAC8) to expand the automatic exchange of information (AEOI) to include crypto-asset transactions.
The new law introduces several compliance obligations for crypto-asset service providers and strengthens Slovakia’s participation in international tax transparency initiatives.
Key provisions include:
-
Reporting and registration:
Designated crypto-asset service providers must register and report under new rules tailored to digital asset transactions. -
Transaction and notification duties:
Providers are required to report specific crypto-asset transactions and fulfill defined notification obligations. -
Cross-border exchange of information:
AEOI rules will apply to crypto transactions across EU member states under the Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework (CARF MCAA). -
Reporting deadlines:
Crypto-asset service providers must submit required information by May 31 and September 30 each year. -
Penalties for noncompliance:
The bill introduces fines and enforcement measures for failing to meet the reporting and registration obligations.
The law is set to enter into force on January 1, 2026, supporting EU-wide efforts to close gaps in crypto-asset transparency and compliance.
