Yes.

The Bitstamp by Robinhood FAQ says eligible US customers will receive Form 1099-DA and/or Form 1099-MISC for tax year 2025 by February 17, 2026.

Robinhood's acquisition does not, by itself, tell you whether a particular sale appears in a Bitstamp or Robinhood document bundle.

Start with the account where the sale occurred, then match the document to its transaction history.

Does Bitstamp issue a 1099-DA for 2025?

Bitstamp's answer is yes for eligible US customers.

Its tax-form FAQ, checked September 26, 2026, says it will issue Form 1099-DA and/or Form 1099-MISC for the 2025 tax year by February 17, 2026.

The “and/or” matters: the page names possible documents, not a promise that every account receives both.

Under the conditions published in 2025, Bitstamp by Robinhood expects to issue Form 1099-DA to eligible US customers for 2025 digital-asset sales. A sale belongs to the 2025 tax year even though the document was due to be furnished in 2026. Do not use the delivery year as a reason to search only your 2026 transactions.

The FAQ does not turn account ownership alone into an eligibility test. If you held crypto but cannot tell whether you had a reportable sale, check the account activity before deciding which form to look for. The 2025 exchange 1099-DA directory puts this issuer-specific answer alongside other exchanges' document paths.

Where and when to find the form

Under the conditions published in 2025, sign in to your Bitstamp by Robinhood account, open the tax documents section, and download the 2025 Form 1099-DA PDF. Keep a copy with the transaction export you use to check it. Look in the Bitstamp account first for Bitstamp activity rather than assuming a Robinhood brokerage bundle contains the sale.

Bitstamp's FAQ states February 17, 2026 as its delivery date. The IRS Form 1099-DA page identifies that date as the taxpayer furnishing deadline for 2025 forms. A deadline and an issuer statement do not tell you when a PDF appeared in your individual account.

Which document should you seek?

Your 2025 activity First check What this does not establish
A sale on Bitstamp Look for Form 1099-DA in Bitstamp tax documents. That every account receives the form.
Activity that may appear on an income or reward document Check whether Form 1099-MISC exists in your tax documents. A Bitstamp-specific threshold or entitlement to that form.
Account ownership only, or activity you have not identified Review the account history before choosing a document to seek. An eligibility outcome from ownership alone.

If the PDF is absent, save the date of your check and the relevant export before contacting Bitstamp's current tax support route.

What the form reports, and what it leaves out

For 2025 sales, Form 1099-DA reporting is proceeds-only. That gives you a figure to compare with Bitstamp's sale history, but it is not a complete statement of gain or loss. The IRS Form 1099-DA instructions provide the reporting framework; your purchase records remain necessary when the form does not carry basis.

A transferred-in lot is the clearest reason to keep those records close. Under the conditions published in 2026, a later sale of crypto transferred into Bitstamp is reported as a noncovered sale. Bitstamp is not required to include the original purchase basis, so you supply it from prior records.

An empty purchase-cost field is not an instruction to treat the asset as free.

The next phase does not rewrite a 2025 PDF.

Under the conditions published in 2026, basis reporting applies to 2026 sales of covered digital assets acquired in the same custodial account after 2025, as described in the IRS instructions.

For this return, compare the proceeds shown with the sales you actually made.

What to check against your records

Start with the Bitstamp export filtered to 2025. Match each sale date and proceeds amount to the PDF, then investigate a mismatch at the transaction level instead of changing a number from memory. A transferred-in lot needs a second trail: find the earlier purchase record outside Bitstamp and retain it with the sale record.

Here is an illustrative workflow, not a customer case: a lot bought before it reached Bitstamp is sold there in 2025. The Bitstamp sale record answers when it sold and for how much; the earlier record answers what you paid. Those are different questions, and one document need not answer both.

Form-versus-record checklist

  • Select 2025 in the Bitstamp transaction export and save that export.
  • Note the issuer and exact title printed on each tax document you download.
  • Compare every reported sale date and proceeds amount with the Bitstamp export.
  • Flag each transferred-in lot and attach its earlier purchase record.
  • Record the exact line you dispute and the current Bitstamp tax support route you use.

A flagged line is a question to resolve, not an automatic finding that the form is wrong. I use the following table to keep the next record search focused.

Which record answers which question?

Item to check 2025 Bitstamp document or export Outside record needed Unresolved condition
Sale date and proceeds Compare the 1099-DA entry with the sale in the Bitstamp export. Another account's history if you are trying to identify where a sale occurred. A difference in date or amount needs transaction-level follow-up.
Transferred-in lot basis Identify the sale and transfer-in in Bitstamp history. The earlier purchase record from the prior account or wallet. Bitstamp need not supply original basis for the noncovered sale.
Possible Form 1099-MISC Check Bitstamp tax documents for that separate title. Records of the activity you are trying to identify. The FAQ's “and/or” does not determine which forms your account receives.
Bitstamp or Robinhood branding Read the issuer and title on the actual PDF. Activity history for each account you used. The acquisition alone does not identify a sale's document.

Do not fill a missing basis amount from a proceeds total. Use the earlier record, and keep the path from purchase to transfer to sale available if you need to revisit the calculation.

Other forms and who receives which document

The Bitstamp FAQ says eligible customers may receive Form 1099-DA and/or Form 1099-MISC. It does not give this article a Bitstamp reward threshold or a rule excluding a particular account type. Check the titles of the documents actually furnished to you rather than treating the two form names as interchangeable.

Robinhood Markets closed its acquisition of Bitstamp Ltd. on June 2, 2025, for approximately $200 million in cash before closing adjustments, according to Robinhood's investor release.

That establishes ownership and the transaction terms. It does not establish that Bitstamp sales moved into a combined Robinhood tax document. For a customer using both services, the useful distinction is still where each transaction appears in the account records.

Corrections and support

If a sale looks wrong, isolate it before reaching out. Save the 2025 Bitstamp export and PDF, identify the disputed line, and note the transaction date and the amount you expected from your records. For a missing form, note which account and tax-documents section you checked.

Use Bitstamp's current tax support route with those details; no particular correction menu or response time is established here.

A document can also look incomplete when the missing piece is an older purchase record. Check for a transfer-in before requesting a proceeds correction. Keep the original PDF and your correspondence so you can see what changed if another document arrives.

What this means for your filing

The usable answer is narrow: Bitstamp documents issuance for eligible customers and gives a February 17, 2026 delivery date.

Its FAQ remains on bitstamp.net under “Bitstamp by Robinhood,” while Robinhood has a separate 1099-DA help page.

Those pages do not settle the final label on every customer's PDF or whether particular account documents are consolidated.

Read the form you received, then match its sales with the account export and fill any basis gap from your own purchase records. The IRS's Form 1099-DA instructions govern the reporting framework (current figure at the IRS).

Once the figures are reconciled, use the guide to report reconciled sales on Form 8949 for the filing mechanics.

Questions about Bitstamp's form

Is my Bitstamp account now part of Robinhood for tax purposes?

Robinhood acquired Bitstamp in 2025, but the available tax pages do not settle how documents for the two accounts are integrated. Compare the document actually issued with the activity in each account; ownership alone does not locate a sale.

Will my 2025 form say Bitstamp or Robinhood?

The Bitstamp FAQ uses “Bitstamp by Robinhood,” but that page does not establish the final document label for every customer. Read the issuer and exact title on your downloaded PDF before matching its entries.

What if my Bitstamp 1099-DA has no purchase cost for crypto I transferred in?

A transferred-in lot sold on Bitstamp is treated as a noncovered sale, so the original purchase basis need not appear on the form. Find the earlier purchase record and use reconcile missing cost basis for the record-matching method.

What should I do if I cannot find the form or a sale looks wrong?

Check the signed-in Bitstamp tax documents section, then preserve the PDF, export and details of any disputed sale. Contact Bitstamp through its current tax support route with the specific missing document or transaction identified.

The 2025 exchange 1099-DA directory is the starting point if you are checking which issuer page applies to an account. Robinhood's consolidated 1099 addresses Robinhood's own document bundle, not an assumed merger with Bitstamp's form.

For other document-location comparisons, Fidelity's customer-visible basis focuses on what a customer can see about basis, while Webull's two-issuer document path addresses where to look when issuer paths differ.

Neither tells you what your Bitstamp PDF contains.

Use reconcile missing cost basis when the purchase record sits outside the sale account. Use report reconciled sales on Form 8949 after the records agree; that guide covers the return step rather than Bitstamp document access.
