The right guidance

At Franssen Tolboom we understand that the Dutch gambling market is becoming more complex, particularly given continual changes to laws and regulations. As specialists in the field of gambling taxation and the application of the gambling levy, we can support you by providing clear legal advice and strategic guidance, leaving you to concentrate on your core activities. Thanks to our close contacts with the relevant authorities we are able to actively contribute – where possible - to the development of applicable regulations, such as changes regarding the taxation of bonuses.

Gambling tax and levy

We advise operators on calculating their gross gaming revenue, the optimalisation of their game and bonus offerings, filing of monthly tax returns and applying the rules of gambling taxation to matters such as international player pools. Furthermore, we are able to assist in disputes regarding the payment of gambling tax. We are also able to provide advice on the annual gambling levy, as payable to the Netherlands Gambling Authority.

Promotional games of chance

Franssen Tolboom can also be of help to those for whom gambling is not their core activity. Should you offer promotional games of chance, to promote a product, service or organisation, then questions regarding the application of gambling tax can still arise. For example, we can provide advice on the correct manner for paying gambling tax on behalf of the winning participants of promotional games of chance.
