Up to KZT2bn paid by betting shop to budget in Almaty for income from 2018-World Cup

In general, in Almaty 17 betting shops were revealed which were not registered in tax authorities.
State revenue authorities in Almaty, during the 2018 FIFA World Cup, conducted time examination of the 16 largest betting shops of the city to identify the real incomes and expenses. It was said at the State Revenue Department of Almaty.

As well known, betting shops pay taxes on gaming business for each shop, but in case the income taking into account expenses as payments to participants of the game for a quarter exceeds 2 000 MCI or 4.8 million tenges, then the tax payer has an obligation to pay an additional fee," said Deputy Head of the State Revenue Department of Almaty Kanat Baltabekov.


The largest representative of the market is the Olimp betting shop that following the results of the time examination paid an additional fee in the amount of 2.4 billion tenges.

In addition, during the 2018 FIFA World Cup, in Almaty 17 betting shops were revealed without registration in tax authorities. As a result of the measures held, all the facilities revealed were brought to tax accounting and were held liable for having committed an administrative offence for the total amount of more than 2.1 million tenges.

The State Revenue Committee reminds about the necessity of timely registration of the entities that run entrepreneurial activity, including the sphere of gaming business, and that of timely implementation of tax obligations," said Kanat Baltabekov.
