Taxbit Launches Enhanced Global Compliance Platform for CARF/DAC8 Reporting
In a landmark move for the digital asset sector, Taxbit has announced an expansion of its platform to facilitate compliance with the European Union's DAC8 directive and the OECD's Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework (CARF). This upgraded offering, set to take effect on January 1, 2026, will empower Reporting Crypto-Asset Service Providers (RCASPs) across more than 65 jurisdictions to automate their tax reporting obligations effectively.
As regulatory landscapes shift, Taxbit is poised to become a formidable player in the realm of digital asset compliance. With the introduction of DAC8 and CARF regulations, the need for a streamlined, automated reporting solution is more crucial than ever. The company aims to simplify compliance through a secure and scalable platform, ultimately enabling digital asset platforms to navigate the new requirements with confidence.
A New Era of Digital Asset Reporting
According to Michelle O'Connor, Vice President of Global Market Expansion at Taxbit, these regulations will significantly change the digital asset landscape, marking a pivotal moment for asset platforms. 'With clearer global reporting requirements, Taxbit provides the necessary tools for these platforms to meet their obligations seamlessly,' O'Connor stated. The platform's design focuses on transforming regulatory complexity into operational simplicity, which is essential for a frictionless user experience.
Taxbit not only aims to enhance compliance but also to turn it into a competitive advantage. Erin Fennimore, VP of Tax Solutions, highlighted that the challenge now extends beyond mere data collection and reporting. It requires a comprehensive system that ensures accuracy while supporting high-volume, complex transactions across borders.
