Cabo Verde Gaming Tax to Overshadow Overall Tax Growth in 2027

Cabo Verde anticipates CVE52 million (US$530,000) in Special Gaming Tax revenue in 2027. The budget reports growth of 3.2%, which is less than the anticipated 7.9% increase in total tax receipts. The forecast coincides with the expectation that tourism will continue to be a key driver of the economy, with the proceeds from gaming taxes being distributed among other public funds and the State Budget. Red Cross social game revenue and net profits are covered by separate numbers that should not be included in the gaming tax prediction.
