Export guide

Bitvavo and crypto tax: export your history

How to download your full Bitvavo history as a file, what Compass-Alpha reads from it and what it means for your tax return.

Information, not tax advice

Bitvavo

Download your history

Bitvavo (website only): Transaction history → Export → full transaction history → CSV.

Exchanges rename their menus now and then. If a step looks different, look for the complete transaction history, all time, as a CSV file.

What happens with the file

Compass-Alpha reads the file in your browser and saves only the transactions to your account: buys, sales, swaps, deposits, withdrawals, rewards and fees. Rows it does not recognise are listed, never guessed.

You can upload a newer file later: transactions that are already saved are recognised and not counted twice.

How it is taxed

A sale, swap or payment from Bitvavo is taxed like on any other exchange: your country's rules decide. The free estimate works out every move in your file under those rules.

Coins moved between exchanges

Upload the files of every exchange you use. A withdrawal from Bitvavo and the matching deposit elsewhere are paired, so the coins keep their original purchase price and date.

Quick estimate · no account needed

What would you pay?

Bought before 2026? Use their value on 31 December 2025, or your higher purchase price if you can prove it. Swaps between coins count as sales too.

Net gain in 2026€25,000
Tax-free allowance− €10,000
Taxed part€15,000
Tax at 10%€1,500

A simplified example. Your own situation can differ.

Worked out in your browser. Nothing is sent or saved.

For the exact figure, upload your exchange files: the estimate for every sale is free with an account.

  • No exchange login, no stored keys

    You upload the files your exchange gives you. We never ask for exchange passwords or wallet signatures. Your data is stored in the EU (Frankfurt) and never sold.

  • One price, no fee per tax year

    Every tax year is included, and your whole history in the files you upload counts for your purchase prices, so older buys are not lost. Pro covers up to 3,000 transactions a year; Pro Large up to 20,000.

  • Free for your accountant

    Share your report and your accountant gets a free dashboard: the figures, open issues and a CSV. No subscription for them. Available for accountants in Belgium and the Netherlands.
