What applies, and when
- On any disposal
- Income from financial applications held outside Brazil, which are defined to include virtual assets and digital wallets, is charged to individual income tax in the annual adjustment return at a rate of 15 per cent, and no deduction from the base is allowed.
- Caveat
- Law 14.754 governs assets held outside Brazil; it does not set the treatment of crypto held with a domestic platform, which falls under the general capital gains rules.
