Hello! I’m going to Japan for a working holiday during the second week of October. I’ve been researching cryptocurrency because my current employment pays me in USDT. After reading threads and information about the taxation of cryptocurrency, I must admit it left me more confused than anything else. To provide some context, I’m from Argentina, where crypto regulation isn’t as strict.
So, my questions are as follows:
\-Can I work as a freelancer in Japan with my salary in USDT without encountering any problems?
\-Are there any places or apps where I can exchange USDT for yen and have it deposited into my bank account?
\-Will I need to notify Japan about my income and other financial matters? I’ve been getting paid on USDT for a little over a year now.
Any additional advice on this topic would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

You need to start browsing /r/japanfinance because you will find that the handling of crypto in Japan is much more complicated.
