Taxbit’s ‘Austria Tax Withholding’ Capabilities

See how Taxbit’s real-time calculation engine helps Austrian CASPs manage KeSt withholding obligations with greater speed and clarity.

Austria’s Ecosocial Tax Reform requires domestic CASPs – those who have or seek an Austrian MiCA license – to withhold 27.5% capital gains tax on taxable disposals by Austrian tax residents, and those obligations have been in force since 1 January 2023. This overview explains how Taxbit supports the calculation layer so teams can focus on operationalising compliance with more confidence.

You'll discover:

• The core Austrian KeSt requirements, including the 27.5% rate, moving average cost basis, and annual deadlines.

• The main compliance challenges, from real-time withholding to loss compensation.

• How Taxbit’s solution works in practice, from transaction ingestion to calculation and reporting support.

• What’s in scope today, where customer responsibilities begin, and what’s on the roadmap.

Who is this for:

• Austrian CASP compliance leaders

• Product, operations, and integration teams

• Firms seeking support for Austrian compliance
