Australia's Crypto Tax Reporting Consultation Closes After OECD Framework Review

According to Australia's Treasury, the public consultation on the Treasury Laws Amendment Bill 2026: Tax Information Reporting closed on Wednesday (October 28). The proposed legislation would implement the OECD's Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework (CARF) and establish a separate domestic reporting regime requiring crypto platforms to report Australian customers' trades to the tax office.

Much of the regime's operational detail—including which providers report, reporting deadlines, and administrative penalties—remains undecided and would be set later by ministerial rules. Lawyers at Piper Alderman flagged that the domestic regime sets no minimum transaction value threshold, meaning many providers will face reporting obligations under both CARF and the domestic regime.
