Buenos Aires province applies 2% tax to online slot winnings
Buenos Aires province will withhold 2% from winnings on online instant-resolution games, Government Minister Carlos Bianco said. The measure covers seven licensed platforms, which must file weekly declarations; the province estimates monthly receipts of ARS 35bn to ARS 40bn. The provincial government said proceeds will support health, education, social development and gambling-harm prevention programmes.
The withholding changes the tax treatment and reporting obligations for seven licensed online platforms in Buenos Aires province.
