巴西 – 去年巴西人在线赌博超过 11 亿美元
By JAMES -22年2024月XNUMX日
According to Brazilian newspaper Folha de S. Paulo during the period from January to November 2023, Brazilians spent approximately 54 billion reais (USD11.1 billion) on online gaming and betting. The figure was based on statistics from Brazil’s Central Bank regarding remittances sent to foreign companies.
For comparison, the amount spent on gambling exceeded Brazilian beef exports, sales of which amounted to USD9.5 billion in 2023, according to the Secretariat of Foreign Trade.
The figure arises from estimates derived from operations recorded by the Central Bank. Through these estimates, it is suggested that approximately 43.3 billion reals (USD8.9 billion) corresponded to “resources transferred to form the amount to be distributed among the winners: the amount bet by the players.” Another 10.7 billion reals (USD2.2bn) was allocated to service fees and retained by the operators.
This figure is likely to increase significantly once legalised online gambling is underway. 路易斯·伊纳西奥·卢拉·达席尔瓦总统 sanctioned Bill 3626 PL / 2023的, on December 30 which regulates the operation of sports betting in Brazil and allows for online casinos as well. The approved bill imposes 12% revenue tax for online betting companies. Player prizes will be taxed at 15%. However Lula vetoed the tax exemption for betting prizes of up to R$ 2,112 per month.
Last week it was revealed that the government is in the process of creating a 国家博彩秘书处 (Secretaría de Apostas Esportivas)。据当地媒体报道，秘书处将于一月底开始运作，负责税务检查和防止洗钱等非法活动。该团队将由从其他政府部门调到秘书处的公务员以及从私营部门招聘的专业人员组成。
