If you used eToro USA for crypto in 2025, look for Form 1099-DA rather than the older “Crypto Tax Form” name. eToro's help article says the newer form replaced that older document for 2025 tax filing, but the later fact-fill established the issuer statement, not actual issuance on every customer's account.
Start with the 2025 exchange 1099-DA directory, then check your own eToro account and transaction records.
Form 1099-DA generally reports digital-asset dispositions and related proceeds information. The form itself does not replace your transaction history or your basis records.
Does eToro USA issue a 1099-DA for 2025?
The research dossier attributes a “yes” to eToro's dedicated help article: eToro says it began providing Form 1099-DA in early 2026 for 2025 tax filing, replacing the older “Crypto Tax Form.” That is an issuer statement about the document's name and 2025 filing season.
The fact-fill completed on September 26, 2026, did not establish actual issuance from the fetched owner pages. That distinction matters. A help article describing eToro's document policy is not the same as proof that a particular customer's account has a form waiting in the app.
For your account, use the document route, select the 2025 tax year, and compare what appears with your own activity export. A form appearing, a form being absent, or a form containing a mismatch each calls for account-level reconciliation rather than an automatic filing conclusion.
Where and when to find the form
In the eToro Investment app, open Settings, then Account to find tax documents for crypto trading activity. This route is supported by eToro Academy's “How to find eToro tax documents” video.
The research dossier describes a longer route as Settings > Account > Documents and says eToro made the document available by February 15. Treat those as dated dossier claims, not guaranteed current directions: the later fact-fill established the Settings and Account steps, but not the final menu label or that eToro-specific date.
For federal timing, the IRS instructions give February 17, 2026, as the furnishing deadline for 2025 Form 1099-DA statements (current figure at the IRS). That IRS deadline governs the general form requirement, not the date a particular eToro account displays a document.
If the app does not show a 2025 tax document, export your 2025 eToro activity before contacting support. The account route and the export answer different questions.
What the form reports, and what it leaves out
The dossier's naming claim is specific to eToro's crypto document: the former “Crypto Tax Form” was replaced by Form 1099-DA for the 2025 tax filing season. The general IRS guidance says most 2025 Forms 1099-DA do not include basis, so taxpayers need their own basis records. See what a 1099-DA reports for the general form and box discussion.
The fetched eToro pages did not establish eToro USA's box-level basis treatment for customer copies. They also did not establish how eToro handles cost basis for crypto transferred into the platform, or what eToro's basis policy will be for 2026 sales. Keep those questions separate from the form's name.
That means a received 1099-DA is one record in your file, not the entire ledger. Preserve the related eToro export and acquisition or transfer records. The cost-basis guide covers how to reconcile missing acquisition information without assuming what eToro printed in a particular box.
What to check against your records
An old document name can send a returning user to the wrong part of the account. Once you find a form, compare it line by line with the source records you used for 2025.
Use this checklist:
| Check | What to compare | What to record |
|---|---|---|
| Tax year | Confirm the document says 2025 | Keep the form with the 2025 export |
| Issuer and document | Check eToro USA and the document name | Note whether it is a 1099-DA or another document |
| Dates and proceeds | Compare sales dates and proceeds with exported activity | Mark each difference for follow-up |
| Transferred-in assets | Locate acquisition or transfer records | Flag lots whose history is missing |
| Support question | State the exact transaction, amount, or date at issue | Take the form, export, and question to current eToro tax support |
The checklist records questions; it does not determine the correct tax amount. For example, an illustrative mismatch might show a sale on the form that is missing from an export. That example is a reason to compare the account history and ask support, not evidence of an eToro failure.
My bookkeeping method is simple: match every figure on the form to a source record. If one line does not tie out, keep the discrepancy visible instead of changing a number to make the two documents agree.
Other forms and who receives which document
The dossier separates eToro's crypto paperwork from its stock and options paperwork. It describes Form 1099-DA for crypto activity and a separate Consolidated 1099 for stocks and options, with the latter bundling Forms 1099-B, 1099-DIV, and 1099-INT.
| Product or activity | Document named in eToro dossier | Condition or evidence limit | Record to compare |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crypto activity | Form 1099-DA, according to the dossier | The dossier says a taxable event in the account generates a form; the fetched owner pages did not establish a particular customer's issuance | 2025 crypto transaction export and acquisition records |
| Stocks and options | Separate Consolidated 1099, including 1099-B, 1099-DIV, and 1099-INT, according to the dossier | The dossier says the document is separate from the crypto form | Stock and options activity records |
The dossier says eToro generates a 1099-DA or Consolidated 1099 only when a client had a taxable event in the account during the year. It also describes an inactive account as producing no form under that condition. That account-document rule is separate from whether activity elsewhere created a tax reporting obligation.
Corrections and support
The dossier does not set out an eToro-specific correction procedure. Do not rely on an invented menu path or assume that a missing form has one standard explanation.
When you contact current eToro tax support, have the document, tax year, 2025 transaction export, and precise discrepancy ready. Identify the transaction date, asset, proceeds figure, or missing history that needs attention. A specific question is easier to route than “my taxes look wrong.”
If the issue concerns how to report reconciled sales, use report reconciled sales on Form 8949 for general filing mechanics. That guide does not determine what eToro should have issued.
What this means for your filing
The practical sequence is short: open Settings, then Account in the eToro Investment app; select the 2025 tax document area; export your activity; and compare the two records. Identify whether the document concerns crypto or the separate stock and options account activity.
Use this navigation aid before you decide what is missing:
Which document am I looking for?
- Crypto sale or exchange: Look in the crypto tax-document area for the document the dossier calls Form 1099-DA.
- Stock or options activity: Look for the separate Consolidated 1099 described in the dossier.
- No taxable event in the account: The dossier describes no generated form under that condition. Check the activity record rather than treating the absence as a tax result.
- Undocumented case: Take the 2025 export and the account details to current eToro tax support.
The decision aid is for navigation, not an eligibility test. If the document and records disagree, reconcile the underlying activity before using the result in your return. The Form 8949 walkthrough explains general reporting mechanics without deciding your individual filing position.
Questions about eToro USA's form
What happened to eToro's old Crypto Tax Form?
The research dossier says eToro replaced its older “Crypto Tax Form” with Form 1099-DA for the 2025 tax filing season. That statement is attributed to eToro's help article, “What is the 1099-DA form?”.
The renamed document does not by itself establish that every eToro USA account received one.
I used eToro in 2025. Why can't I see a 1099-DA?
The dossier says a 1099-DA is generated when the account had a taxable event during the year. Start in the eToro Investment app under Settings, then Account, and compare the result with your 2025 transaction export.
An absent document alone does not decide whether your activity was taxable. Ask current eToro tax support about the account after gathering the export and any relevant transaction records.
Will my eToro stock trades be on the crypto form?
The dossier describes crypto activity and stock or options activity as separate document categories. It names Form 1099-DA for crypto and a separate Consolidated 1099 that bundles 1099-B, 1099-DIV, and 1099-INT for stocks and options.
Check the document type and the activity export before combining records.
How do I check an eToro amount before I file?
Compare the form's sales dates and proceeds with exported eToro activity, then gather acquisition or transfer records for the related assets. Mark the exact discrepancy rather than changing the form or export without a source.
Use current eToro tax support for an issuer correction question and report reconciled sales on Form 8949 for general filing mechanics.
