Korean National Policy Committee: The taxation of digital assets has not yet been specifically discussed.

According to Digital Asset Works, the National Planning Commission (National Political Commissar) directly under the President of South Korea said at a regular press conference on June 24 that there has been no specific discussion on the implementation of digital asset tax. A spokesman for the political commissar said that the content of the report is only a policy concept, not a final task, and all items should not be regarded as a formal policy to advance. The National Commissar plans to determine the topic and scope of discussion at the meeting of the Tax and Fiscal Reform Working Group (TF) to be held on June 26, and decide on the follow-up disclosure based on the results of the meeting.

Previously, the National Development and Reform Commission mentioned the expansion of the new economic tax system, including the tax system for digital assets such as Bitcoin, in its report on June 17, attracting market attention. However, the implementation of digital asset taxation is expected to be delayed until 2027 due to insufficient infrastructure.
