How to Export Hyperliquid Trade History for Taxes

Hyperliquid doesn’t send you a tax form at year-end. Getting your trade history into a usable shape for tax purposes is a manual export, done yourself, from three separate files.

This guide is part of TradeOnDEX’s Hyperliquid how-to series within Perpetual Futures. It’s general educational information, not tax advice, see the note at the end.

Why this isn’t as simple as downloading “a statement”

Unlike a centralized exchange that often issues a consolidated annual summary, Hyperliquid provides raw export files, and no formal tax statement of its own. This means for you, concretely: reconstructing a full tax picture requires combining several export types, not just one download, and typically requires third-party software to translate that into a usable gain/loss report.

The three exports you need

From your Portfolio page, scroll to the bottom to find three separate CSV exports:

1. Trade History, your individual spot and perpetual trade fills.
2. Funding History, your hourly funding payments and receipts, covered in more detail in the funding rate guide.
3. Deposits and Withdrawals, your on-chain transfers in and out of the platform.

A complete picture for tax purposes generally requires all three, since trades alone don’t capture funding payments or capital movements.

How to get from raw exports to a usable tax report

1. Download all three CSV files from your Portfolio page.
2. Import them into a crypto tax platform that supports Hyperliquid (several, including CoinTracker, CoinLedger, CoinTracking, Coinpanda, and Koinly, accept these exports directly, either via CSV upload or, in some cases, by connecting your wallet address via API).
3. Review the platform’s categorization of your transactions, funding payments in particular are a category some tax software may not classify consistently by default, so check this specifically rather than assuming it’s handled correctly out of the box.
4. Generate the report format required for your specific jurisdiction and tax situation.

Risk: what goes wrong when self-reporting DeFi trading activity

Funding payments are easy to miss or miscategorize if you only export Trade History. Since funding accrues hourly and separately from trade fills, skipping the Funding History export can meaningfully understate your actual activity and cash flow for the period.

Jurisdictions differ significantly in how they treat perpetual futures, funding payments, and DeFi activity generally. How gains, losses, and funding payments are characterized for tax purposes varies by country, and sometimes even by the specific type of instrument. This article cannot tell you how your specific situation should be reported.

Sub-accounts and vault activity may require separate exports. If you use sub-accounts or have deposited into HLP or a user vault, check whether those activities are captured in your main account’s export or need to be pulled separately.

Relying on memory or partial records instead of the full export set risks an incomplete picture. DeFi activity across many small transactions (frequent funding settlements, multiple trades) is much harder to reconstruct after the fact than to export properly as you go, export periodically rather than waiting until year-end.

The three exports at a glance

See it for yourself

Export all three files periodically, rather than only at year-end, so you can catch categorization issues early instead of reconstructing a full year’s activity under time pressure. You can access your exports from the Hyperliquid Portfolio page.

Frequently asked questions

Does Hyperliquid provide an annual tax statement?

No. It provides raw CSV exports (Trade History, Funding History, Deposits and Withdrawals) that you or your tax software need to process into a usable report.

Do I need all three CSV exports, or just Trade History?

Generally all three, Trade History alone omits funding payments and capital movement records that matter for a complete picture.

Which tax software supports Hyperliquid?

Several platforms accept Hyperliquid exports directly, including CoinTracker, CoinLedger, CoinTracking, Coinpanda, and Koinly, among others. Check current feature support before choosing one.

Is this article tax advice?

No. This article explains where and how to export data; it is not a substitute for professional tax advice specific to your jurisdiction and situation.
