Draft tax guidelines
It follows the recent release of formal draft tax guidelines on bitcoin-related business obligations from the country’s revenue collection agency, the Australian Tax Office, which received a somewhat mixed response from the local bitcoin community.
For future tax purposes, Australians transacting in bitcoin will need to keep records on the date of the transaction and party being transacted with (a bitcoin address is adequate), the Australian dollar (AUD) value of the transaction according to reputable exchanges at the time, and a note of what the transaction was for.
Of particular interest was the non-definition of bitcoin as a form of money or ‘financial supply’ which raised concerns that bitcoins could be double-taxed under Australia’s Goods and Services Tax (GST), or that including the 10% sales tax on Australian-sold bitcoins would drive business away from local exchanges to those hosted overseas.
Employers paying salaries in bitcoin are still obligated to deduct pay-as-you-go income tax and superannuation (retirement fund) amounts in AUD.
