Does SafePal Wallet have tax documents?
No, SafePal Wallet does not provide tax reports. It's incredibly difficult for any crypto wallet to provide an accurate tax report due to the multiple wallets investors are normally using - so tracking cost basis and identifying transfers from disposals is almost impossible for any one wallet or exchange. This is why most investors opt to use a crypto tax tool to track their entire crypto portfolio and tax liability from one spot.
How do I get SafePal Wallet tax documents?
The easiest way to get your SafePal Wallet tax documents is to connect to Koinly automatically using your public address. Once connected, Koinly calculates your tax liability and generates your SafePal Wallet tax documents.
Does SafePal Wallet provide financial or end of year statements?
No, SafePal doesn't issue users a financial statement or EOFY statement, nor can you export your transaction history as a CSV directly from the app.

Yes. You need to pay taxes on your SafePal Wallet transactions. If you have capital gains or income, you’ll need to report these figures to your tax office - usually as part of your annual tax return.
Is SafePal Wallet safe?
Yes. SafePal Wallet is regarded as a secure, non-custodial, offline wallet. Cold wallets like SafePal Wallet are generally regarded as the best way to store your crypto in terms of security.
