Tax Authority Jurisdiction is the legal power of a governmental tax agency to impose and collect taxes within a defined geographical area or over specific types of transactions. For digital assets, this determines which national or regional tax body has the right to tax cryptocurrency gains, income, or transfers. It depends on factors such as the taxpayer’s residency, the location of exchanges, and the nature of the crypto activity. This jurisdiction establishes tax obligations.
Context

The decentralized nature of cryptocurrencies often leads to debates about which country has the primary right to tax certain transactions. International cooperation and harmonized reporting standards are being developed to address these jurisdictional ambiguities and prevent tax evasion.
