ANJL opposes proposed 15% CIDE-Bets levy on betting deposits in Brazil
Brazil’s National Association of Games and Lotteries (ANJL) criticised a report on Bill 5.582/2025 proposing a 15% CIDE-Bets charge on sports-betting deposits. The association called for consultation with the sector and argued that taxing deposits could push customers towards illegal operators; it said existing GGR tax revenue could help fund public security instead.
A deposit-based levy could change the cost and regulatory conditions facing licensed betting operators in Brazil.
