At Binance, we’re always focused on delivering a better experience for our users. In jurisdictions where there’s increasing clarity on crypto regulations, many users care about reporting their crypto tax accurately and compliantly. To meet this need, Binance recently launched the Tax Reporting Tool*, a new API tool that helps Binance users keep track of their crypto activities.
With the Tax Reporting Tool, users can transfer their Binance transaction history to third party tax vendors of their choosing and obtain a real-time overview of their local tax liabilities. The Tax Reporting Tool is optional and simply serves as a connecting point to third party tax vendors, enabling users to stay on top of their tax requirements without compromising data privacy.
*The Binance Tax Reporting Tool is only available to Binance.com users.
To use the Tax Reporting Tool, simply select your respective applicable tax jurisdiction by integrating our API with your preferred third party tax vendors.
