According to CoinMeta, French legislators are proposing a bill that requires holders of crypto assets to pay taxes on unrealized profits when leaving the country, even if the assets have not been sold. This departure tax applies to portfolios worth over 800,000 euros (about $900,000). France currently imposes this tax on stocks when wealthy residents leave the country, while crypto assets have been exempt from taxation. An amendment to the bill was approved by the National Assembly's Finance Committee on October 8th, and debates are expected to begin on Tuesday. This tax is aimed at profits that exist only on paper, and it will apply to anyone who has lived in France for more than 6 months over the past 10 years.
