# Is transferring crypto between my own wallets taxable in the UK?

No. Moving crypto between wallets or accounts you own is not a disposal, so no Capital Gains Tax arises — you still own the same asset. Keep records of the transfer so it is not mistaken for a sale, and note that a network fee paid in crypto is itself a small disposal of the tokens used to pay it.
