On March 25, 2026<\/strong>, Brazil advanced one of the most significant reforms for the gaming industry by integrating the betting sector into the Public Security Constitutional Amendment Proposal (PEC 18\/2025)<\/strong>, consolidating its role as a direct source of state funding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The initiative, already approved in the Chamber of Deputies with a decisive vote of 461 in favor and 14 against<\/strong>, now moves to the Senate and redefines the relationship between gaming and public finances in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

At the core of the PEC is the requirement that a portion of betting revenues be allocated to strategic funds such as the National Public Security Fund (FNSP)<\/strong> and the National Penitentiary Fund (FUNPEN)<\/strong>. The framework establishes a progressive allocation starting at 10% between 2026 and 2028<\/strong>, potentially increasing to up to 30% of sector revenues<\/strong>, calculated after payouts, taxes, and operator margins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Rather than introducing a new tax, the measure creates a structural redistribution model<\/strong>, integrating the sector into the financing of key public policies. This comes as Brazil\u2019s betting market exceeds $7 billion in annual revenue<\/strong>, while facing the challenge of formalizing an illegal segment estimated between R$26 billion and R$40 billion<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Although an additional 6% tax increase was not approved, the PEC reinforces indirect fiscal pressure on operators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this move, Brazil is not just regulating gambling\u2014it is embedding it as a constitutional pillar of public funding.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
