Under the Nigeria Finance Act of 2023, a capital gains tax of 10% has been introduced for digital assets. This tax is applicable when selling or disposing of valuable digital items that result in a profit. The tax calculation involves deducting allowable deductions from the total earnings in a specific assessment year. It applies to a wide range of property types, including options, debts, and intangible assets, regardless of their physical location. The tax also covers foreign currencies, except for the Nigerian currency. Any property that is created or acquired without purchase is considered an asset for tax purposes. However, the Act does not provide a clear definition of what constitutes a digital asset, leading to controversies regarding its scope and intentions.
