Some countries exempt CGT only for individuals, only after minimum holding periods, or only for certain asset classes. Corporate entities may still face CGT. Check country details for specifics.
Disclaimer. No capital gains tax does not mean no tax on investment income. Dividends, interest, and rental income may still be taxed. Some countries tax “speculative” gains on short-term trades. Crypto-specific rules are emerging in many jurisdictions. Always consult a qualified tax professional.
