The Gist on Gambling Taxes in Russia

In a recent disclosure, Daniil Getmantsev, head of the financial committee, has raised concerns about the tax structure on gambling winnings. He made this revelation in a Telegram channel.

Getmantsev pointed out a noticeable discrepancy, as the tax on gambling winnings has significantly increased by 7.3 times compared to the previous year. Meanwhile, the personal income tax (PIT) has only seen a modest 26.1% increase during the same period. This apparent disparity, according to Getmantsev, suggests the need for a reevaluation of the tax on winnings.

June saw a significant surge in taxes paid by the gambling industry, with the amount paid more than doubling compared to June of the previous year.

It's worth noting that Russia's standard VAT (Value-Added Tax) rate stands at 20%, with a reduced rate of 10% for certain goods and services. When it comes to personal income tax, Russia typically levies a flat rate of 13% (for residents). However, the specific tax rate for winnings is not explicitly stated.

Recent economic focus in Russia has been on military Keynesianism, addressing ruble volatility, and countering sanctions. Whether this raises a possibility of changes in the tax structure for gambling winnings remains to be seen.
