Fines imposed for infringements of delivery of information on crypto-asset users
This week, the Seimas approved the draft Law on the Code of Administrative Offences prepared by the Ministry of Finance, which establishes the administrative responsibility of crypto-asset service providers for the failure to deliver information on their crypto-asset users. Also, the responsibility is tightened for infringements related to delivery of information to the State Tax Inspectorate.
From now on, crypto-asset service providers have been given the administrative responsibility for the failure to deliver information to the STI.
It also provides for a responsibility for avoidance to deliver information to the tax authorities by artificially creating circumstances in which information is supposed to be omitted, and a stronger responsibility for infringements of delivery of information on opened and closed accounts.
In view of the seriousness of the offence and the fines already established in the Code of Administrative Offences for offences with similar content, the amounts of the fines set range from EUR 200 and EUR 6000.
The amendments to this Code relate to the amendments to the Law on Tax Administration adopted on 19 June 2025, transposing the provisions of the Directive on administrative cooperation in the field of taxation providing for delivery of information on crypto-asset users to the STI from 1 January 2026 and implementing the OECD Recommendations.
