[Courtesy] City Hall has proposed a raft of new tax measures and rules aimed at regulating the multi-billion-shilling gaming and betting industry in the city. The measures are contained in the Nairobi City County Betting, Lotteries and Gaming Bill 2020. They push for the introduction of a betting Act that will establish regulations for the licensing of betting, gaming and totalisator premises. Players in the lucrative industry will also have to contend with new taxes such as an entertainment tax on all betting, lotteries and gaming licensed chargeable at a rate of 20 per cent on the gross winnings of all betting, lotteries and gaming.
