Waking up to see many friends sharing this image, I don't know if it's true or false, but there are two interesting points:
- How was it discovered that foreign platforms are trading virtual currencies? Recently, there was a lot of buzz about CRS, but it did not cooperate with exchanges.
I guess some might say that it was data provided by unscrupulous exchanges. But if that's the case, 636,000 RMB, which is less than 100,000 USD in undeclared income, seems too trivial. There are many experts on Twitter in the country with incomes exceeding ten million USD.
If they really want to investigate, they would definitely start with "high net worth" individuals. However, I haven't heard of any high net worth person being asked to pay back taxes. Moreover, if high net worth individuals are investigated, it might not just be a 20% issue.
- How is the annual net income determined? This is key; it's not about one or a few transactions, but rather the annual income, a field that often appears in bank statements.
So I personally estimate that during the deposit and withdrawal process, assets were randomly checked, and then the friends honestly disclosed their cryptocurrency transactions and submitted their income records. They are likely individuals who have been trading for less than a year or just started making profits this year.
Should one be worried about being reported? Yes and no. If someone reports you for tax evasion, there is a possibility of being investigated, but reporting must have evidence. It's not enough to just say, "I suspect someone," for them to be investigated; there must be evidence. Without evidence, it won't be accepted, and the evidence is likely to come from bank transfers.
The same goes for overseas friends. If your funds are returned to China in large amounts from overseas, it’s the same situation. However, if the funds remain in overseas accounts, there is no problem.
PS: The amount to be paid back, 12.72, should be in ten thousand, and indeed the capital gains tax rate is 20%. This is correct.
This tax law was established in 2008, and the State Administration of Taxation issued the "National Tax Letter [2008] No. 818," which clearly states: "Income obtained by individuals through the online acquisition of virtual currency from players and selling it at a markup to others falls under… property transfer income and is subject to individual income tax."
Although it was initially about virtual game currency, some local tax authorities have indeed enforced it this way.
