Cryptact Supports Australian Tax Returns and Cryptocurrency Taxation

pafin Inc. (Co-CEOs Azmed Amin / Gaku Saito, hereinafter "the Company"), which operates the cryptocurrency (crypto asset) automatic profit and loss calculation service "Cryptact," has released a new feature supporting Australian tax returns and cryptocurrency taxation, effective July 1, 2026 (Wed) at 11:00 AM AEST (10:00 AM JST on the same day). This enables cryptocurrency investors residing in Australia to efficiently calculate complex cryptocurrency profits and losses in preparation for the tax filing deadline of November 2, 2026*1. This marks Cryptact's third overseas service expansion, following Canada in February 2025 and India in July 2025.

Background of the Australian Cryptocurrency Market Environment and Taxation

According to surveys of local cryptocurrency exchanges, the adoption of cryptocurrencies is accelerating in Australia, with approximately one in three adults (33%) having experience holding or using cryptocurrencies*2.

Alongside this rapid proliferation of cryptocurrencies, the Australian government announced in December 2025 its policy to introduce the OECD's Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework (CARF) and a domestic cryptocurrency tax reporting system. This is expected to require intermediaries such as cryptocurrency exchanges to report user transaction information to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO), further strengthening the authorities' ability to capture income*3.

Against this backdrop, we determined that there was a growing need for accurate profit and loss calculation tools, leading to our decision to offer services in Australia.

Support for Tax Returns

In Australia, capital gains earned from selling cryptocurrency held for over 12 months are subject to a 50% reduction in the taxable profit amount for Capital Gains Tax (CGT)*4. By supporting these local tax regulations and generating tax reports, users can complete their tax returns simply by transcribing the automatically calculated income and expenses based on their transaction history.

Furthermore, by utilizing the AI integration feature announced on June 24th of this year, users can more conveniently calculate profits and losses with the support of AI tools such as Claude and ChatGPT, integrated with their Cryptact account.

Comment from Azmed Amin, Co-CEO of pafin Inc.

"We are delighted to offer Australian cryptocurrency investors a simpler and more accurate means of calculating profits and losses and filing their taxes. With the recently announced AI integration feature, the tedious preparatory work that could not be fully resolved by calculation tools alone can now be handled through conversational AI. We believe this is a significant step towards making crypto asset tax filing more accessible to a wider range of investors. Leveraging the accuracy, transparency, and efficiency cultivated in Japan, we will continue to enhance user convenience globally."

*1 The general deadline is October 31st. However, as October 31, 2026, falls on a Saturday, the deadline for self-filers is extended to the next business day, November 2 (Mon). *2 Independent Reserve, "Independent Reserve Cryptocurrency Index (IRCI) Australia 2026" (March 2026) *3 Australian Taxation Office, "OECD Crypto Asset Reporting Framework and domestic reporting" (Announced December 2025) *4 Australian Taxation Office, "CGT discount" (As of June 2026)
