Lebanon

Asia

Falls under Lebanon's Chapter I tax on non-commercial professional profits, progressive up to 25% on net profit. No separate capital-gains treatment; crypto receipts are valued and taxed as professional revenue. Reporting is patchy but the liability stands.

How it's classified

Non-commercial / professional business income - taxed under Chapter I (profits of professions), not salary and not capital gains.

Tax rate

Progressive profits-tax brackets, currently 4% to 25% on net annual profit (top bracket).

Social contributions

NSSF mainly covers employees; a self-employed contractor has limited/voluntary NSSF exposure but must register the activity for income tax.

Registration / regime

Register the independent activity, keep accounts, file an annual real-profit (or deemed-profit) return under Chapter I; separate from payroll tax.

Crypto payouts

No specific crypto tax law; USDC payouts received for services are professional revenue valued in local currency at receipt and taxed under Chapter I. Enforcement is weak amid the financial crisis.
