Many Kenyans want to place bets on a betting site which doesn’t pay tax. In Kenya,any betting site that uses Mpesa or Airtel money must pay tax. They have to be registered and licensed for them to obtain the Paybill number. To avoid paying tax,they will only allow other payment options except Mpesa and Airtel Money.
Yes,there are a couple of betting sites that operate without paying taxes,where players will place bets,win and withdraw money without being taxed. However,all local betting sites MUST deduct tax before paying you the winning amount.
Mostly, international betting sites are the ones which operate without paying tax in Kenya. So,if you want to know a site that doesn’t pay tax,first search for international betting sites,register and place a bet.
The betting tax in Kenya is 15% of the income a company registers. If a company earns Ksh 10 million,they will pay a tax of Ksh1.5 million. The government has proposed to increased the tax to 20%.
