South Korea's National Tax Service has yet to establish definitive tax guidelines for decentralized finance (DeFi), staking, lending, and other forms of cryptocurrency income ahead of the new virtual asset tax regime set to begin next January. According to NS3.AI, the agency, in a written response to lawmaker Song Eon-seog, indicated that it is currently gathering international legislative examples and expert opinions to inform its approach. The lack of clarity on taxing profits from overseas exchanges outside the 56 jurisdictions covered by the Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework could lead to issues of fairness and potential capital flight.#SouthKorea #CryptoTax #DeFi #Staking #Lending #VirtualAssets #TaxRegime #NationalTaxService #CapitalFlight #InternationalLegislation
