Income Tax Liability

Definition

Income Tax Liability refers to the total amount of income tax an individual or entity is legally obligated to pay to a government. This obligation arises from taxable income earned over a fiscal period, which in the digital asset space can include earnings from cryptocurrency trading, staking rewards, or airdrops. The specific amount due depends on applicable tax laws, rates, and deductions in a given jurisdiction. Accurate calculation and reporting are essential to avoid penalties from tax authorities.
