# How to export Coinbase CSV for UK HMRC tax

Coinbase → Settings → Statements → Generate transaction history (CSV). Include all wallets, Advanced trades, and converts. Import into UK-compatible tax software applying Section 104 pooling — not US cost basis defaults.

## Key facts
- Export covers buys, sells, converts, sends, receives, rewards, and fees.
- Coinbase One tax reports are not a substitute for your legal records.
- Advanced Trade history is separate from simple Coinbase — export both if used.
- Staking rewards on Coinbase: Income Tax at receipt, then CGT on disposal.
- Transfers to your own wallet: not a disposal but keep the send record.

## Export steps (Coinbase app and web)

Sign in → profile → Settings → Statements → Transaction history → Custom date range → CSV → Generate. Select 'All transactions'. Repeat for each tax year (6 April to 5 April). Download promptly — some users report links expiring after 24 hours.
## Coinbase Advanced Trade

If you used Advanced Trade, ensure those fills appear in the unified export post-2023 migration. If missing, export Advanced order history separately and merge carefully — duplicate rows break software imports.
## Fields in the CSV

Typical columns: Timestamp, Transaction Type, Asset, Quantity, Spot Price, Subtotal, Total, Fees, Notes. Map 'Convert' to disposal + acquisition pair. 'Receive' from external wallet: acquisition at sterling value on date received. 'Send' to own wallet: non-taxable transfer with proof.
## Common mistakes

Forgetting small 'Learn and Earn' rewards (taxable income). Missing GBP fee rows. Using USD spot prices without sterling conversion on date. Importing twice after re-downloading overlapping ranges.
## Importing to tax software

Koinly, Recap, Coinpanda and others support Coinbase CSV. Set jurisdiction to United Kingdom before calculating. Review 'uncategorised' transactions manually.

## FAQs
### Does Coinbase report to HMRC?

UK Coinbase entities are in scope for CARF from 2026. You still file your own return.
### How far back can I export?

Usually full account history. Request older data via support if statements limit range.
