According to local Japanese news media Nikkei, the Financial Service Agency ( FSA) plans to include reforms to the Crypto Assets tax system in its 2026 tax revision proposal. This proposal is expected to combine tax changes with stricter regulations and may introduce ETFs linked to Crypto Assets.

The reform plan includes two key components. First, it involves amending the tax laws to classify Crypto Assets in the same category as stocks instead of under the comprehensive tax. Second, it includes a legal amendment to reclassify Crypto Assets as Financial Products, allowing the FSA to apply insider trading rules, disclosure standards, and investor protection measures under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act.

Currently, Japan categorizes Crypto Assets gains as "miscellaneous income" for taxation, with a progressive tax rate that may exceed 50% once local taxes are included. In contrast, stocks and bonds are subject to a flat tax of 20%.
