FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to declare crypto I have not sold?

In Spain a gain or loss arises when you dispose of crypto: selling for euros or swapping for another coin. Simply holding is not taxed as income, but it can trigger reporting duties such as Form 721 and, depending on your wealth, wealth tax.

Is swapping one crypto for another taxable?

Yes. According to the Spanish Directorate General of Taxes, a crypto-to-crypto swap produces a gain or loss that must be declared.

What happens to my crypto if I die without a plan?

It forms part of your estate like any other asset. The problem is practical: if nobody knows the keys or platforms, it may be inaccessible forever. With exchanges, heirs must prove their status with probate documents.

Do you see or store my seed phrase?

Never. We help you set up and verify your custody, but you generate and keep the seed yourself. We put this in writing.

I am also taxed in the UK or elsewhere – can you help?

Our focus is Spanish law. Where another country is involved, we coordinate with advisers there when needed.

I have been scammed with crypto – what should I do?

Keep all evidence, never pay upfront fees to anyone promising to “recover” your funds, and get in touch quickly: time is key to try to freeze funds at exchanges.
