52%

Aruba has no specific crypto tax law, so an individual’s crypto gains are likely taxed under general income/wealth tax principles at rates up to about 52%, but the exact treatment for private investment gains is not clearly defined in official guidance yet.

“A 2019 study of financial technology in Latin America indicated that Aruba currently lacks a specific comprehensive law providing a concrete regulatory framework for this technology, at the same time indicating that private-sector digital currencies are allowed.[2] Therefore, Aruba lacks a regulatory scheme that addresses cryptocurrency, and officials continue to view it skeptically.[2]” Departamento di Impuesto Aruba (Tax Department of Aruba)
