Country rule snapshot
Tax treatment: ATO guidance treats crypto assets as CGT assets in many investment cases, with capital gains included in income tax calculations rather than taxed under a separate stand-alone tax.
Holding rule: A simple 50% CGT discount assumption is applied in this v1 tool when the holding period exceeds 12 months.
Cost basis model: This v1 tool uses a single disposal cost basis and does not attempt to model the full set of CGT methods or exceptions.
How to use this calculator
Best for a quick single-sale estimate, not a full Australian CGT calculation.
