All forms of gambling will get a 10% flat tax according to Ukraine’s Committee on Finance, Tax and Customs Policy which approved the new measure. The committee considered bill 2713-d, which was presented by committee chair Oleg Marusyak, to complement the Gambling Act that legalised various forms of gambling in Ukraine and was signed into law in August 2020.
Note that initially the bill proposed a 5% GGR tax on bookmaking, 10% for online gambling and lotteries and 12.5% for slots.
However, it seemed more appropriate for the committee to opt for a single rate on all verticals instead. Also, winnings from gambling of more than eight months’ minimum wage (currently UAH48,000) will be taxed as income. The Rada will still have to approve the new tax bill, after which it may be signed into law.
