French National Assembly postpones budget vote after rejecting proposal

France's National Assembly postponed its vote on the revenue section of the 2027 budget on November 3, with 758 amendments still pending, after rejecting two amendments on October 30 that would have applied an exit tax to unrealized gains on crypto assets when taxpayers move their tax residence abroad. One amendment failed 27-55 and the other 31-60, meaning French crypto holders relocating overseas will not face taxation on unrealized gains under the current draft. The outcome preserves France's existing crypto tax treatment for now, though the budget remains under review and further amendments affecting digital assets could still surface as debate continues.
