From January to March 2025, the gambling industry in Ukraine contributed 5.4 billion UAH in tax payments, reflecting a 20.4% increase compared to the same period in 2024.
This was reported by the head of the Verkhovna Rada Finance Committee, Danilo Hetmantsev.
“This amount exceeds the January-March 2021 figures by 143 times (37.7 million UAH),” the deputy noted.
According to his data, in January 2025, the budget received 735 million UAH, in February – 1.52 billion UAH, and in March – 3.13 billion UAH.
He also mentioned that the total turnover using cash registers (RRO/PRRO) in the first two months of 2025 reached 8.5 billion UAH, exceeding the figures for January-February 2024 by 18.5 times (0.5 billion UAH).
“The mandatory implementation of cash registers (RRO/PRRO) in the gambling sector at the end of last year is contributing to the legalization of the industry,” Hetmantsev emphasized.
As a reminder:
The Cabinet of Ministers established the state agency “PlayCity,” which will implement state policy in the field of organizing and conducting gambling and lottery activities.
