Selling Tether in Australia
Selling Tether (USDT) in Australia is mechanically simple-mode-but-still-AUD-aware: the price barely moves in USD terms, but USD/AUD does, and the ATO taxes the AUD gain or loss.
Mechanics. Send USDT to a regulated platform on the supported network (ERC-20 Ethereum, TRC-20 Tron, or SOL), complete KYC, agree on the sell rate, pick a payout. Confirm the network with the deposit address before sending. Payout in AUD via PayID/Osko or EFT.
ATO tax. USDT disposals are CGT events for most retail holders. The dollar value of USDT barely moves, but USD/AUD does. The AUD value of your USDT at sell can differ materially from AUD value at purchase due to USD/AUD movement. The ATO treats this as part of the CGT calculation, not as a separate currency event. 50% CGT discount applies if held more than 12 months. Per-parcel cost basis.
USDT briefly broke peg in 2018 and during the 2022 Terra-Luna event, dipping to 96-99 cents. Day-to-day, it trades within fractions of a cent of one dollar.
The ATO has data-matching agreements with major Australian and international crypto exchanges; USDT volume is captured the same as any other coin.
Banxa is headquartered in Melbourne. AUSTRAC registration covers Australian operations.
USDT is a stablecoin, not a savings product. The peg is a contractual arrangement subject to issuer risk. This is not financial advice.

Frequently Asked Questions
One rule above all: match the network. Tether runs on several chains, and the deposit address you are given belongs to one specific network; sending on a different chain is the classic way funds disappear. Check the network label beside the address, send exactly what you intend to sell, and once the deposit confirms, the AUD payout follows at the rate you accepted.
The USDT in a wallet you can send from, held on a network the sell flow supports; a single photo ID verification, typically minutes and only ever done once; and an AUD account in your own name for the payout, matching your verified identity. Before sending, read both the address and its stated network twice, since those two lines do all the work.
If the deposit shows as confirmed when you look up your transaction ID in the relevant chain's explorer, the coins are fine and the wait is fiat-side: first-sale verification, a name-match review on the payout account, or plain bank processing windows. If it does not show at all, check you sent on the network the address specified. Sale allowances vary with payout rail and verification level, shown at the quote.
