Colombia requires crypto exchanges to provide user data
The new Regulation 000240, announced by the Colombian tax authority, requires cryptocurrency service providers, including domestic and foreign exchanges and wallets, to provide user data and transaction details
The Colombian tax authorities have announced the new Resolution 000240, which mandates that all companies providing cryptocurrency services must provide information on users and their transactions.
The legal instrument establishes the reporting requirements to the DIAN (Colombian Tax Authority), including those for domestic and foreign exchanges, as well as cryptocurrency wallets.
The Resolution is dated December 24, 2025, and is “aligned with the OECD Crypto Asset Reporting Framework (CARF).” However, the obligations for those involved will begin in the 2026 tax year.
The main objective of the measure is to strengthen transparency in the crypto sector and combat tax evasion. In this regard, “providers must provide the tax authority with data such as the name, address, jurisdiction of residence, tax identification number, and date and place of birth of users.”
Furthermore, details such as “account ownership, transaction volume, number of units transferred, market value, and net balances will be requested. This includes cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ether, and stablecoins.”
