Does Coinbase Send Tax Forms?

When it comes to taxes, there are a lot of questions that come up. One of the most popular questions is “Does Coinbase Send Tax Forms?” Here’s what you need to know.

The IRS requires Coinbase to report all transactions over $20,000. So if you have made any Coinbase transactions that are over $20,000, you will receive a 1099-K form from Coinbase.

This form will show all of your Coinbase transactions for the year.

However, Coinbase is not required to send 1099-K forms to customers who have made less than $20,000 in total transactions for the year. So if you haven’t made any Coinbase transactions that are over $20,000, you probably won’t get a 1099-K form from Coinbase.

Coinbase is also not required to send 1099-K forms to customers who live outside of the United States. So if you’re not a US citizen and you haven’t made any Coinbase transactions that are over $20,000, you probably won’t get a 1099-K form from Coinbase.

NOTE: WARNING: Coinbase does not send tax forms directly to its customers. It is the customer’s responsibility to determine their cryptocurrency-related tax obligations and file the associated forms with their local, state, and/or federal authorities. Coinbase does not provide legal or tax advice and customers should seek professional advice if they do not understand their taxation situation.

If you do receive a 1099-K form from Coinbase, you will need to include this information on your tax return. The 1099-K form will show your total gross income from all Coinbase transactions for the year.

You will then need to subtract any expenses that are related to your Coinbase transactions (such as fees). The resulting number is your taxable income from Coinbase transactions.

Coinbase is not responsible for calculating or paying your taxes. You are responsible for ensuring that all of your tax obligations are met.

This includes reporting your taxable income from Coinbase transactions on your tax return and paying any taxes that are owed.

If you have any questions about whether or not you owe taxes on your Coinbase transactions, we recommend that you speak with a tax advisor.
