Portugal will amendment the country’s gambling laws in 2018, according to local media reports. The goverment has put forward a number of proposed changes to online gaming tax and regulations.

As per the proposed changes to online gaming tax, the tax for the State will raise from 2.28% to 3.17% and the allocation for the ministry responsible for promoting social policies will increase from 34.52% to 48.05%.

Currently, the country taxes sports betting operations at 16% on turnover, and casino operations, including online poker, at 30%.
