Switzerland to share crypto tax data with 74 countries
Switzerland proposes global crypto tax transparency with AEOI expansion

​The Swiss Federal Council has submitted a draft law to Parliament proposing the automatic exchange of cryptocurrency tax information starting in late 2026. The list of partner countries includes the UK, all EU member states, and most G20 nations — but excludes the U.S., China, and Saudi Arabia.

This initiative follows Switzerland’s adoption of national legal frameworks for crypto assets under the AEOI (Automatic Exchange of Information) earlier this year in February.

If passed, the law will take effect on January 1, 2026, with the first data exchange scheduled for early 2027.

Before any actual exchange of crypto asset data begins, the Federal Council proposes verifying whether the partner countries with which AEOI is activated continue to meet the standard’s requirements.

Mutual interest matters

In its statement, the Federal Council emphasized that AEOI should only occur if partner countries are genuinely interested in sharing information with Switzerland.

It also noted that the EU will implement AEOI for crypto assets under the eighth update to the Directive on Administrative Cooperation (DAC8). This directive applies to countries that do not yet follow the OECD Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework (CARF) across all EU member states.

The U.S. is also expected to comply with CARF standards developed by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).
