EU drops common igaming tax from first 2028 budget draft
Original: Common tax on igaming omitted from first draft EU Budget 2028
The first draft of the European Union's 2028 budget does not include a proposed common tax on igaming, according to industry coverage. The levy had been floated as a potential new own-resource for the bloc, so its omission means online gambling operators across member states will not face an EU-level gaming tax under this initial proposal. Observers in the gambling and EU policy sectors are watching whether the idea resurfaces in later negotiation rounds.
Why now: The EU budget proposal is new and its omission of a widely discussed igaming levy matters to the gambling industry and national treasuries.
