フランス議会、ステーブルコイン取引に31%のキャピタルゲイン課税を科す法案を可決

France's parliament has officially passed Amendment I-3898, establishing a heavy 31% capital gains tax rate on digital asset transactions involving stablecoins. The controversial ruling removes previous tax deferral advantages that allowed traders to swap crypto assets without triggering immediate taxable events, even within MiCA-compliant frameworks. Scheduled to take effect in January 2027, the policy aims to harmonize digital asset taxation with traditional capital gains structures. Crypto advocacy groups and industry leaders have strongly criticized the move, warning it could drive liquidity and blockchain startups out of France to more crypto-friendly European jurisdictions. Regulators maintain that the tax clarity is necessary to ensure fair contribution and prevent systemic tax evasion within the digital economy. The decision marks a significant regulatory hurdle for European Union crypto market participants.
