France’s National Assembly Finance Committee approves amendments to France’s 2027 budget proposal that would change how some cryptocurrency transactions are taxed. One amendment would treat conversions into qualifying stablecoins as taxable events starting January 1, 2027. A second amendment would allow eligible crypto losses to be carried forward for 10 years, rather than being limited to a shorter period.
Both amendments still require additional legislative steps before they can become law. Outlets also report that related provisions in the wider tax package address when certain crypto gains may be taxed, including in scenarios involving households with larger holdings relocating abroad. While the committee’s approval signals movement toward tighter rules for specific crypto transactions, the measures’ final scope depends on further review during the remainder of the budget process.
