Crypto capital-gains tax in Virginia

Virginia's brackets haven't been updated in decades, so nearly all taxpayers pay the top 5.75% rate, which starts at just $17,000 of taxable income for every filing status. The 2025 state budget raised the standard deduction to $8,750 single / $17,500 joint beginning with tax year 2025, and each filer also gets a $930 personal exemption. Capital gains are taxed as ordinary income.

Common questions

How is crypto taxed in Virginia?
At the federal level, crypto is property and gains are taxed as short- or long-term capital gains. At the state level, Virginia taxes crypto capital gains as ordinary income — the same rate as your wages, with no long-term discount.
Does Virginia have a lower rate for long-term crypto gains?
No — unlike the federal system, Virginia does not give long-term gains a preferential state rate; they're taxed the same as short-term gains.
