Italy's land-based gambling overhaul remains open as fiscal deadline nears
Regulation · SectorWire deskSource published
Summary
Italy's reorganisation of land-based gambling remains unfinished ahead of the 29 August 2026 deadline for implementing the fiscal delegation, citing an analysis in Il Riformista. The online sector has been reshaped through new concessions, stricter operator requirements and stronger controls, while retail venues still face differing regional and municipal rules. The land-based sector generated over €7.5bn in tax revenue in 2025, the analysis said.
Why it matters
Operators face continued regulatory fragmentation across Italian retail venues while the deadline for the fiscal delegation approaches.
