0.03% Fee Per Transaction

According to details shared by AK Party Deputy Chairman Ömer İleri, the taxation model will apply directly on the transaction volume. Under the approved bill, crypto asset buy, sell, and transfer transactions will incur a 0.03% transaction fee. The “final tax” emphasis ensures investors are not liable for extra income tax on gains. The model aims to create a transparent and auditable structure rather than imposing a heavy tax burden.

How Much Is the Crypto Tax in Turkey?

Per the new regulation approved by the Parliamentary Plan and Budget Commission, all transactions on CMB-licensed crypto platforms—including buying, selling, and transferring—will carry a 0.03% fee. This fee is final, and no additional income tax will be collected from investors.

VAT Exemption and Financial Status

The technical provisions include a VAT exemption, a critical factor in the legal status of crypto assets. Exempting crypto transactions from Value Added Tax confirms their recognition as modern financial instruments. The previous market speculation of 15–40% income tax has been replaced by a symbolic 0.03% fee, offering significant relief for market participants.

How the Regulation Could Impact the Crypto Market

In recent years, Turkey has emerged as one of the world’s most active cryptocurrencies markets in terms of individual investors. For this reason, the legal framework and taxation of crypto assets have long been on the policy agenda.

The provisions approved by the Parliamentary Plan and Budget Commission outline a model in which crypto transactions are conducted through CMB-regulated platforms and subject to a low transaction fee.

Once the bill completes its parliamentary process and comes into effect, the tax framework for crypto trading in Turkey will be clarified for the first time.
