South Africa Treasury proposes 20% national tax on online gambling GGR
South Africa’s National Treasury proposed a 20% national tax on online gambling GGR in a discussion paper released on 25 November. The Treasury estimated the levy could raise about R10bn and said it would apply alongside provincial taxes, taking effective rates to 26–29%; public comments are due by 30 January.
Online operators could face an additional national levy on top of existing provincial taxes if the proposal is adopted.
