Betting tax rate and threshold
The betting tax rate is applied to the taxable wagering revenue that exceeds the annual threshold. See the current rate and threshold.
As a betting operator, you must register for betting tax with us within 7 days of the end of the first month that your taxable wagering revenue (TWR)
equals or exceeds the annual threshold amount.
For example, if your TWR equals or exceeds the annual threshold amount during March 2025, you must register for betting tax by 7 April 2025.
