EU drops common igaming tax from first 2028 budget draft

Original: Common tax on igaming omitted from first draft EU Budget 2028

The European Commission's first draft of the EU Budget for 2028 leaves out a proposed common tax on igaming, meaning online gambling operators will not face an EU-wide levy in the initial proposal. The omission is notable for the gambling industry and for member states that had expected gaming revenues to help fund the next long-term EU budget.

Why now: The EU's next multiannual budget is being drafted now, and stakeholders are scrutinising which revenue sources are included or dropped.
