Regional context
The Middle East includes countries without personal income tax (like those in the Gulf) and others with general rules or restrictions on crypto use. Always check if platforms are authorized in your country.
Before filing: have your history in order
The first step to a proper tax declaration is to download the complete transaction history from each platform you use. MiCA-licensed exchanges often provide ready-to-use annual reports, which significantly simplifies the filing process.
