Bybit tax FAQ

How do I do my Bybit taxes for SARS?
Connect Bybit with a read-only API key. Coinfig imports your spot and derivatives history and classifies it for SARS.
How are Bybit derivatives taxed in South Africa?
Active derivatives trading is often revenue in nature, taxed at your marginal rate rather than under CGT. Coinfig flags derivatives PnL for review. This is not tax advice.
Does Bybit report to SARS?
No. Bybit is an offshore exchange and does not report to SARS. You must declare your gains yourself.
Is the Bybit API connection read-only?
Yes. Use a read-only key. Coinfig can never trade or withdraw from your account.
