“I have already spoken with the president (Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva), he is in favor because gambling worldwide is taxed, and in Brazil, it is not,” said Haddad in a recent interview with UOL.
The new Finance Minister has been intensively mobilizing for profitable projects for the Lula Government, such as the return of federal tax collection on fuels in Brazil.
The decision about the taxation of gambling in Brazil will focus especially on casino and sports betting applications, which have been growing significantly in recent years.
The Finance Ministry is preparing to send the regulations for gambling to the Civil House by the end of this month.
With the taxation of gambling, Haddad hopes to address the current situation after updating the Income Tax table in Brazil.
He highlighted that the taxation model for applications is ready but needs ministry approval to proceed to the Civil House for a decision on implementation in the coming months.
Taxation of Gambling in Brazil May Offset Income Tax Deficit and Raise Between R$ 2 Billion and R$ 6 Billion Annually in the Country
The Lula Government and Fernando Haddad’s decision regarding the taxation of gambling in Brazil could significantly contribute to annual revenue for the public treasury.
According to rumors from the national market, an amount between R$ 2 billion and R$ 6 billion is expected annually from the taxation of applications in the country.
The Finance Ministry and Haddad have not yet responded regarding the decisions related to this agenda, but they have already been questioned about the rumors.

Thus, the taxation of gambling by the Lula Government and Fernando Haddad will be just the first step of the process.
