ANJL proposes alternatives to Brazil’s planned betting tax increase
Brazil’s National Association of Games and Lotteries (ANJL) sent lawmakers proposals opposing a rise in betting-site tax from 12% to 18% of gross gaming revenue. Its technical note estimates the increase would raise about R$ 2.2 billion annually, while warning that higher costs could push licensed operators towards the illegal market.
The proposed tax change could affect licensed operators’ costs and the balance between regulated and illegal betting in Brazil.
