CoinDesk and to brief reported in October 2026 that crypto-tax measures tied to France’s 2027 budget remained proposals after the National Assembly Finance Committee reportedly rejected the budget’s revenue section. According to current reporting, the package would extend the reported 31.4% crypto tax treatment to certain stablecoin trades, introduce an €800,000 exit-tax threshold, require reporting of self-custodied holdings above €100,000 and allow losses to be carried forward for 10 years.

France Has Not Finalized the Reported Crypto Tax Package

The supplied reporting does not establish that the package has received final approval. The clearest current picture is that the measures were under discussion as part of the 2027 Finance Bill, while the latest reported setback was the National Assembly Finance Committee’s rejection of the revenue section. That does not prove that the full National Assembly has either passed or rejected the package.

This distinction matters because committee support for individual amendments does not amount to enacted tax law. CoinDesk said none of the measures had yet become law. Meanwhile, to brief reported that the committee voted 31 to 3, with 2 abstentions, against the revenue section on 2026-10-09. Business France separately described the 2027 Finance Bill as a government proposal subject to parliamentary amendment and adoption.

What the Reported 31.4% Rule and Related Thresholds Would Cover

Current reporting points to a broader package than the headline stablecoin tax alone. CoinDesk described the 31.4% measure as a proposal to extend the reported crypto capital-gains treatment to certain trades involving EU-regulated stablecoins, rather than evidence that a new standalone tax is already in force.

Other reported provisions include an exit tax on crypto assets above €800,000 and a 10-year crypto-loss carryforward, both cited in a KuCoin News item relaying Huo Xing Finance and Journal du Coin. crypto.news reported a separate proposal requiring disclosure of self-custodied crypto holdings above €100,000, with a potential fine of up to €10,000 for non-disclosure.

Within the scope of the reported proposal, the package can be summarized as follows:

Current reporting does not clarify the precise legal wording behind these thresholds and obligations. The supplied material does not establish the definition of a stablecoin, the valuation method, filing procedures, wallet aggregation rules or the detailed operation of any exit tax.

Why the Budget Rejection Matters for the Next Step

The reported committee rejection matters because it stopped these crypto amendments from advancing as settled budget text. Business France said the French government presented the 2027 Finance Bill on 2026-10-01 and that National Assembly consideration was due to begin on 2026-10-13, leaving the crypto provisions tied to the broader budget process.

In practical terms, the next key step is a renewed full-Assembly debate on the revenue text, rather than automatic adoption based on earlier committee approval. Readers seeking a simple answer can view the package as an active proposal within France’s 2027 budget battle, not as a rule that already changes tax or reporting obligations today.
