La Rioja government forecasts €12.53m in gambling-tax revenue for 2027

The Government of La Rioja expects to receive €12,526,988 from gambling taxes in 2027, according to the regional budget proposal. That is €715,092 less than the €13,242,080 included in the 2026 budget proposal, a fall of 5.4%.

The 2027 draft general budget for La Rioja totals €2.322bn, described in the source as the highest amount in its history and 9.6% higher than the previous year. The Consejo de Gobierno approved the document on 29 September and registered it in the regional parliament the same day; it was published in the official bulletin on 2 October.

Gambling taxes appear in the economic classification of revenue as a single item, concept 210, within indirect taxes. The document does not break the forecast down by gambling type, so it does not show how much is attributed to bingo, gaming machines or casinos.

The forecast for fee 9.15, covering administrative actions on games of chance, falls from €102,908 to €76,443, a decline of 25.7%. Taken together, the two gambling-related items fall from about €13.34m to €12.60m, a drop of 5.6%.

The budget proposal also forecasts higher transfers from the Sociedad Estatal Loterías y Apuestas del Estado, listed in the document under its former name, Organismo Nacional de Loterías y Apuestas del Estado. That item rises from €79,904 in 2026 to €97,856 in 2027.
