The regulator and the framework
The regulator for virtual asset service providers in Argentina is the Comisión Nacional de Valores (CNV). The framework rests on Law 27,739, which brought virtual asset service providers within scope, and on CNV general resolutions that set out the registration regime, conduct rules, and requirements for providers that serve Argentine residents.
Under that regime, a provider that targets the Argentine market, for example through local funds collection or marketing to residents, is required to register with the CNV before operating. Because registration status and the detail of the rules can change, confirm a platform's position directly on the CNV register (as of 26 June 2026).
How crypto is taxed in Argentina
Crypto is taxed in Argentina under the general tax rules, administered by the national tax authority, ARCA, the Agencia de Recaudación y Control Aduanero, which took over the functions of the former AFIP. Gains and holdings can be relevant for income tax and for personal asset reporting, depending on the circumstances and on any applicable regime in force (as of 26 June 2026).
Because rules and thresholds change and depend on personal circumstances, including periods of monetary and tax change in Argentina, confirm the current treatment with ARCA or a qualified adviser. See the Argentina crypto tax page for a fuller explanation. This is general information, not tax advice (as of 26 June 2026).
