Capital Gains Tax
Dominica's Personal Income Tax provisions enumerate taxable income as gains or profits from business, employment, rentals and royalties, interest or discounts, premiums, commissions and fees, and annuities, with no capital gains category listed among them. The Inland Revenue Division's published tax categories, covering income tax, VAT, excise tax, several licences and other levies, include no capital gains tax.
Crypto Tax
Dominica has no cryptocurrency-specific tax guidance. Its Income Tax lists business, employment, rental and royalty, interest, premium and commission, and annuity income as assessable; no capital-gains or investment-gains category is separately listed, so a personal investor's gain from disposing of cryptocurrency is not covered by any named category.
Wealth Tax
No net wealth tax is identified in Dominica's tax framework. The official Inland Revenue Division's enumeration of current taxes covers Corporate Income Tax, Excise Tax, PAYE, Personal Income Tax, Travel Tax, VAT and Withholding Tax, plus various licenses; no wealth or net-worth tax is among them.
