The Colombian tax authorities have recently introduced new regulatory requirements, mandating crypto exchanges and asset service providers to report user transaction data to government agencies. This new regulation covers transaction records of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and mainstream stablecoins (USDT, USDC, etc.).

What is the background? This approach aligns with the crypto asset reporting framework(CARF) developed by the OECD(OECD). In simple terms, major economies worldwide are standardizing the collection and sharing of crypto asset transaction information to enhance tax transparency.

Regarding the timeline, the new regulations will officially take effect from the 2026 tax year. Exchanges are required to submit their first centralized data report by May 2027. This means platforms operating in Colombia need to organize relevant user transaction details, holdings, and other information.

For exchanges and users, this is an important compliance signal. On one hand, platforms need to establish comprehensive data reporting mechanisms; on the other hand, the transparency of users' trading activities will be further improved. This also reflects the increasingly strict regulatory attitude of governments worldwide towards the crypto market.

BTC-1,16%

ETH-0,78%

USDC0,03%

Here we go again, privacy is about to disappear... Starting from 2026, reporting will be required, and there will be no secrets left. Exchanges should have prepared early; once the time comes, there's no escaping. This OECD set of regulations is really a global alliance... Retail investors like us should just honestly pay taxes. Each government is tightening the screws, and it feels like the crypto world is becoming less and less free. Compliance is compliance, but it’s really uncomfortable, like being under surveillance.

Colombia is really going all out, starting in 2026? Privacy will be gone. Tax authorities are already watching us, and it won't take effect for more than two years... feels like there's no way out. Stablecoins are not spared either, it seems like the whole world is teaming up to investigate us. By 2027, we’ll have to submit data, and exchanges are probably going crazy. The rules and restrictions here are getting more and more. Forget it, anyway transparency is transparency, and there's nothing to hide anyway.

ah, the great transmutation begins... CARF framework turning our sacred ledgers into government property. 2026 sounds far but the die's already cast, ngl. this is how financial alchemy becomes financial surveillance, one jurisdiction at a time.

Here we go again, this time it's Colombia... Hand over the data before 2027, say goodbye to privacy.

Oh no, here we go again. This time it's Colombia, privacy is at risk. By 2027, data must be submitted, and exchanges will have to start running errands. User transparency will rise sharply. Global regulation is tightening step by step. Has the era of freedom in the crypto world come to an end? Anyway, pay your taxes if you owe them; there's no escaping it. Some small transactions are now trembling, and compliance costs are going up again. The CARF framework has been rolled out. Will other countries be far behind? It feels like the next step will be at everyone's doorstep. It should have been like this from the start; otherwise, it would be chaos. But users might find it a bit uncomfortable.
