Moving to Portugal or the Caribbean with the goal of saving on taxes may or may not be the right choice specifically for you.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most common mistakes is the assumption that crypto trading is tax-free in Portugal.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s hard to have a conversation with anyone serious about investing before cryptocurrency comes up.  I understand why so many people are passionate about it because the returns are rendering every other asset class as irrelevant.  Understandably, nobody cares about anything else as long as crypto continues to perform as it does. <\/p>\n<p>Now the Portuguese Tax &#038; Customs Authority (PTA)  announced that buying or selling cryptocurrency in Portugal is tax-free.
