Crypto tax in Uruguay

Crypto in Uruguay is unclear / unsettled.

Uruguay has no explicit, enacted personal tax rules for cryptocurrency yet, so as a relocating individual you face legal uncertainty on whether private crypto gains are taxed as income, capital gains, or are exempt.

“However, Uruguay does not yet have any specific cryptocurrencies’ regulations in place; neither addressing the cryptocurrencies themselves, nor the entities providing services, commercialising cryptocurrencies, nor tax-related regulations.” — International Bar Association (summarising Central Bank of Uruguay and local law)
