How Seychelles taxes crypto
Seychelles is widely regarded as a jurisdiction without a general capital gains tax, which makes it favorable in simplified crypto tax comparisons for individual investors. In this app, cryptocurrency investment gains for individual holders are shown at 0% for both short-term and long-term disposals. Treatment can still differ if the activity is carried out as a business, licensed financial service, or other taxable commercial operation, so users should keep records and confirm current local guidance before relying on a final tax position.
The same rate applies however long you held.
A 10,000 SCR gain, settled
| Held | Rate | Taken | Kept |
|---|---|---|---|
| Short-term | — | — | 10,000 |
This is the arithmetic the app runs on your device. Real liability depends on your residency, income, allowances and how the authority classifies your activity. Treat it as an estimate and check with a qualified adviser before you act.
