#美国贸易赤字扩大 Just confirmed from the Japanese National Tax Agency: a certain leading exchange's CARF cryptocurrency tax information synchronization mechanism is about to be launched. To start with the conclusion—Mainland China is not currently on the synchronization list.
However, Singapore, Canada, South Korea, the Cayman Islands, and all these places are on the list, along with Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, and 48 other countries and regions, making the coverage very extensive.
Remember the key date: it officially takes effect on January 1, 2026, and the final deadline for tax reporting and payment by tax authorities in various regions is April 30, 2027. The timeline is very clear.
The actual impact on everyone depends on your personal situation. If you are purely a Mainland Chinese resident—without overseas bank cards, overseas accounts, and not planning to study abroad or move abroad long-term—honestly, the pressure is not significant for now.
But as soon as your identity or assets have any overseas connection—even just an overseas account, an international card, or plans to move abroad later—the subsequent matters of asset declaration and tax planning become complicated. Instead of rushing at the last minute, it’s better to clarify your accounts and straighten out your identity now, so you can feel more at ease.

Damn, here comes another wave of tax cleanup
Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan can't escape either, looks like I need to plan ahead
I knew those exchanges weren't honest... they should have done this earlier
Wow, starting next year, it's going to get hectic
Quickly organize the accounts, or you'll be confused when the time comes

Effective January 2026, providing nearly two years of a window period. Having a purely mainland Chinese identity indeed isn't very stressful, but for those with overseas connections, now is the time to organize everything; otherwise, it will be very urgent before April 2027.
---
Synchronized across 52 countries, the coverage is quite comprehensive. Mainland China is not on the list for now, so this round is relatively friendly.
---
Once the CARF mechanism is activated, there will be no gray areas. Instead of messing around later, it's much cheaper to clarify the tax chain now.
---
The key is identity verification. Even with an international card, a re-planning is necessary. The chain is indeed very clear; it all depends on who acts now and who won't be anxious later.
---
Remember the deadline of April 30, 2027, or the tax authorities in various countries will truly coordinate at that time.

Oh no, another new tax regulation, the retail investors should be nervous
Wait, are Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan included? This is getting interesting
You need to clear your accounts before 2027, or you'll really have to cut losses
Speaking of which, having a mainland Chinese ID is still comfortable, but for friends with overseas cards... good luck to you
Early planning is indeed wise. Are you waiting to be harvested if you don't act now?
Some exchanges probably coordinated with tax authorities in various countries long ago
Friends in Singapore and Canada are probably starting to run errands
This wave of CARF really can't be avoided. Take advantage of the time before it officially takes effect to plan ahead

Haha, yet another reason to cut leeks again
It's both taxation and synchronization, one set after another... If this CARF really gets implemented, how many people will be panicking?

Laughing so hard that I started crying, now all the tax authorities around the world are coming to collect.
Someone's international card is trembling, I bet five bucks he's currently checking how many overseas accounts he has.
2026 is still far away, but I advise you not to play dead now; sorting out your accounts can't be delayed.
This round covers 48 countries and regions, including Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan. Basically, except for mainland China, everywhere else must honestly report data.
Those of you with only mainland Chinese identity are laughing to death. You can lie low for now and maybe lie low a bit longer.
