Switzerland\u2019s government has given the green light<\/a> to a plan that will force crypto firms to hand over data on their customers\u2019 digital assets. The measure, adopted on June 6, 2025, aims to start sharing information with 74 partner countries. It is set to take effect on January 1, 2026, but the first actual exchange of data won\u2019t happen until 2027.<\/p>\n

Plan Timeline And Details<\/strong><\/h2>\n

According to the Swiss Federal Council<\/a>, the bill was put forward to update existing rules on international data sharing. Starting January 1, 2026, crypto-service providers in Switzerland must record who holds which crypto assets and report that data to Swiss tax authorities.<\/p>\n

Then, in 2027, those authorities will send the information to partner states that meet the required standards. Parliament is debating the bill now, and approval will lock in the January 2026 start date.<\/p>\n

The Federal Council has adopted a bill to enable the automatic exchange of cryptoasset information with 74 partners, including \"\ud83c\uddec\ud83c\udde7\", all \"\ud83c\uddea\ud83c\uddfa\" members, and most of G20 (not \"\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8\", \"\ud83c\udde8\ud83c\uddf3\", \"\ud83c\uddf8\ud83c\udde6\"). Now Parliament is debating the bill.<\/p>\n

List Of Partner Jurisdictions<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Based on reports, Switzerland plans to share crypto data<\/a> with 74 jurisdictions. That group covers all 27 member states of the European Union plus the United Kingdom. It also includes most G20 countries.<\/p>\n

However, the United States, Saudi Arabia and China are not on the list because they haven\u2019t agreed to the Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework (CARF) rules. Data will only flow to countries that both request it and meet OECD criteria under CARF.<\/p>\n


\nRules And Oversight Process<\/strong><\/p>\n

Under the current proposal, Swiss authorities must double-check every partner state before sending any data. This review is similar to the one in place for bank-account data. If a country falls short of the CARF rules, sharing will be suspended until it corrects any issues.<\/p>\n

The bill would amend Swiss law to ensure that the same checks apply to crypto assets as they do to traditional finance accounts.<\/p>\n

Impact On Local Crypto Firms<\/strong><\/p>\n

Crypto-service providers in Switzerland will see changes starting 2026. By then, they will have to compile customer names, addresses, tax ID numbers and crypto balances. That data goes to Switzerland, which then passes it along to other states in 2027.<\/p>\n

Under the EU\u2019s eighth update to the Directive on Administrative Cooperation (DAC 8), Swiss firms will also have to report directly to EU member states until Switzerland signs all the new EU data-protection agreements under the European Convention on Human Rights.<\/p>\n

These new steps aim to bring crypto assets in line with how banks report accounts. The Swiss Federal Council says this will help meet international tax transparency commitments and protect the reputation of Switzerland\u2019s financial sector.<\/p>\n
