An absence here means we have no quotation, never that the transaction is untaxed.
CARF and DAC8
The OECD's Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework and the EU's DAC8 make crypto-asset service providers report their users' transactions to tax authorities, which then exchange them. Where an authority states its own position, the cell quotes it. The OECD's commitment list is not on this site: oecd.org answers a bot wall, and this site does not publish a list nobody here has read.
