The Chilean gambling authority, the Superintendency of Gambling Casinos (SCJ), has published a financial report that details the first month of operations after an eight-month mandatory closure due to COVID-19. The 11 casinos that reopened in Chile contributed around $1.8m to the State in taxes.
The facilities that resumed their activities between November 19-28 comprised Luckia Arica, Marina del Sol Calama, Enjoy Antofagasta, Antay Casino & Hotel, Ovalle Casino & Resort, Casino del Pacífico, Enjoy Santiago, Sun Monticello, Casino de Colchagua, Enjoy Coquimbo and Enjoy Viña Del Mar.
A month later, the total tax contribution totaled $715k, corresponding to the “specific gambling tax destined to the Regional Governments and Municipalities where they operate to finance development works”.
