  • On January 1st, 2026, HM Revenue & Customs began requiring major cryptocurrency exchanges to collect full transaction records and automatically report them for all crypto users in the UK.
  • Concerned about non-compliance, UK tax officials say joining CARF will give HM Revenue & Customs a richer dataset to better target UK tax residents suspected of under-declaring gains, ensuring payment of capital gains tax.
  • As part of CARF, Ireland and Britain join the initial 48-country wave while 75 countries have committed, with exchanges reporting users' tax residency to authorities.
