Chile government fast-tracks online betting bill with 15-day timetable
Chile’s government gave urgent status to an online betting bill in its second constitutional stage in the Senate, requiring debate to advance within 15 days. The proposal would introduce operator licences, a 20% tax on gross gaming revenue and a 15% tax on users’ withdrawn winnings; aPAL welcomed the accelerated process.
Operators could face new licensing, tax, reporting and responsible-gambling requirements if the bill passes.
