Ethiopia has no clear, specific rules yet on how an individual’s gains from selling or trading crypto are taxed, so treatment of private investment gains is still uncertain for someone relocating there.

“Ministry of Revenue: This body is responsible for collecting taxes, but the current legal definitions of income and assets do not explicitly cover gains from cryptocurrency. As a result, the Ministry does not currently collect tax from income earned by exchanging cryptocurrency for fiat currency, as noted in an academic paper from Addis Ababa University.[3]” Ministry of Revenue (via summary of current law)
