<p>New income tax rules approved by the Brazilian Senate may require Brazilians to pay up to a 15% tax on income from cryptocurrencies held on foreign exchanges.</p> 
<p>The bill, having already passed in the Chamber of Deputies, is anticipated to be approved by President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, who initiated the income tax rule changes.</p> 
<h3 id="brazil-and-crypto-tax-rules">Brazil and Crypto Tax Rules</h3> 
<p>Effective January 1, 2024, the tax applies to any Brazilian earning over $1,200 (6,000 Brazilian reals) on foreign exchanges, aligning their tax rate with funds held domestically. Upon access, funds earned before this date will incur a tax rate of 8% for earnings accessed before December 31.</p> 
<p>Note that this is the crypto profit derived by trading on foreign exchanges. This rule isn’t applicable to expats leaving in Brazil with no residency status.</p>

            <p>Furthermore, the legislation also impacts “exclusive funds,” referring to investment funds with a single shareholder, as well as foreign companies operating in the Brazilian financial market. The government aims to generate $4 billion (20.3 billion Brazilian reals) in revenue in 2024. Senator Rogério Marinho expressed his dissenting opinion on the bill.</p>
