Summary
01 DAC8 and UK CARF started applying on Jan. 1, 2026, so covered platforms may already be logging reportable activity. 02 Those records feed 2027 reports to the provider's reporting authority, and sometimes onward to the user's tax residence. 03 The route depends on provider nexus and tax residence, while users still need full records because reports omit complete trade history. If you use a crypto platform in the European Union or the United Kingdom, some of your 2026 activity may already be being recorded and will be used to feed tax-information reports in 2027. The EU's DAC8 rules and the UK's Cryptoasset Reporting Framework, known as CARF, both began applying on Jan. 1, 2026.
