Dutch finance ministry and KSA report gambling-tax revenue below targets
The Dutch Finance Ministry and Kansspelautoriteit reported in June 2026 that higher gambling-tax receipts fell short of government targets. Tax revenue rose by €2 million in 2025 compared with 2024, while the 2026 forecast points to a €57 million increase; the report says other market changes make the tax rise's impact difficult to isolate.
Operators face higher tax rates while official forecasts show receipts below the government's targets.
