How to Obtain Tax Reporting on Binance & Frequently Asked Questions

 Tax Reporting allows you to keep track of your crypto activity in order to ensure you are fulfilling the reporting requirements laid out by your regulatory bodies. With Binance, you are now able to have all your transactions tracked and accounted for automatically with our Tax Tool Functionality.

Disclaimer: Binance does not provide tax advice. Depending on the country's regulatory framework, when you trade commodities and the event produces capital gains (or losses), you would have to pay taxes duly. The regulatory framework for taxation of cryptocurrencies differs from country to country, hence we strongly advise you to contact your personal tax advisor for further information about your personal tax circumstances.

How to File for Taxes Automatically via API?

If you need to file taxes and generate statements and transaction records of more than 1 financial year, you can use our Tax Tool Functionality API to automatically file taxes via third-party tax tool vendors.

Please note that the third-party tax tool software might charge you fees for their services.

1. Log in to your Binance account and click [Account] - [API Management].

2. Click [Create Tax Report API].

Please note that each user can only create one Tax Report API, and the tax tool functionality only supports read access.

4. Select a third-party tax tool (i.e Koinly, BearTax) you would like to use. We will use Koinly as an example.

Visit Koinly’s website and select your base currency and home country.

Please exercise your own discretion and/or consult your personal tax adviser based on your personal tax circumstances and requirements when selecting the third-party tax tools.
