Digital asset transactions, including cryptocurrency sales and dispositions
February 17*



*Estimated availability date. Actual delivery may vary.


What is Form 1099-DA, and what information does it provide?

Form 1099-DA is a new IRS tax form specifically designed for digital asset transactions, including cryptocurrency. It provides details for the tax year, including:


  • Proceeds: The gross amount from sales and other taxable dispositions.
  • Cost basis: The original purchase price of the digital assets.
  • Transaction dates: The purchase and sale dates for each transaction.
  • Transaction amounts: The quantity and value of digital assets involved.

I didn't get a Form 1099-DA. Why?

Not all customers will receive a Form 1099-DA. You'll typically receive one only if you had reportable crypto activity during the tax year.


You may not receive a 1099-DA if:


  • You only bought crypto and did not sell or convert it
  • You had no taxable crypto transactions during the year
  • Your account had no reportable activity under IRS requirements

If a 1099-DA is not issued, it does not necessarily mean your activity is non-taxable. You are still responsible for reporting taxable crypto activity when filing your taxes.


Will I still receive a crypto gain/loss PDF and CSV file?

No. Under the new IRS requirements, customers will no longer receive separate crypto gain/loss PDFs or CSV files. All required tax information—including cost basis and proceeds—will now be included directly on Form 1099-DA.


Where can I find additional information about these forms?

Additional information regarding these tax forms can be found at https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/i1099gi.pdf.
