Fux partially grants AGU's request, but refuses to repeat the 2024 debate and says the Supreme Court is already aware of the damages caused by betting.

The rapporteur for ADI 8027 includes the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Justice and ABRAS, but also Grêmio, FENAPAF and the Paralympic Committee in the public hearing on Tuesday (3), which will have 34 participants and will focus on the effects of MP 1.394/2026

See the new schedule.

Brazil's Supreme Court (STF) is ruling on ADPF 1212, which prohibited municipal lotteries.

Fachin has scheduled for Wednesday (November 4th) the Solidarity party's action requesting the end of lotteries created by municipalities. At least eight of the 14 amici curiae argue that Nunes Marques' injunction should be upheld.

If the betting companies "cheated," the government kept the majority of the money.

A spreadsheet sent to BNLData by an executive from an authorized operator shows that, for every R$100 of GGR (Gross Revenue Generation) in 2025, R$27,40 went to the public sector and R$10,60 became profit. For every R$1 that the companies earned, the State received R$2,58.

Narrative Seal: Secom-PR blames regular betting for the loss of the illegal market and hides the fact that the government was a partner.

FactCheck: ABRAS's thesis linking the end of betting to consumption.

Ending the betting system will cost the State and society almost R$ 50 billion until the concessions expire.

BNLData's calculation adds the contribution on the GGR destined for legal beneficiaries and the federal taxes paid by the operators. With R$ 405 billion in measures in the election year, the re-elected government is giving up revenue from online betting that doesn't disappear, it just migrates to the illegal market.

Predictability for whom, Minister?

Durigan promises security to those who invest in Brazil, but the case of the betting companies – 85 paid licenses, bank guarantees, hiring of professionals in Brazil, incorporation of a company in the country, setting up physical, technological and compliance infrastructure, in addition to investments in advertising to launch their brands, and licenses revoked after 22 months with not a single cent returned – shows the opposite.
Four agencies, no study: Planning, Revenue, and the Civil House confirm that the Provisional Measure on Betting was created without an impact assessment.

Four agencies, no study: Planning, Revenue, and the Civil House confirm that the Provisional Measure on Betting was created without an impact assessment.

Following the Finance and Sports ministries, responses via the Access to Information Law show that the Planning Ministry never evaluated the betting policy, that the Internal Revenue Service did not produce a new estimate even after the Provisional Measure, and that the Civil House did not present any study. The Civil House limited itself to placing the process under secrecy.

Sin tax: Provisional measure sets the tax rate on lotteries, fantasy football, and bets at 0,5% starting in February 2027.

Provisional Measure 1.399 covers all types of betting in the tax reform—including fixed-odds betting, currently prohibited by Provisional Measure 1.394. If betting is allowed to resume due to a Supreme Court decision or the expiration of the Provisional Measure, the new tax will be added to a burden that already includes 14% on the GGR (Gross Revenue Management) and the introduction of the CBS (Contribution on Goods and Services).

Brazil's Supreme Court hears from parties regarding municipal lotteries and postpones the judgment of ADPF 1212.

Solidarity, the Attorney General's Office (AGU), the State of São Paulo, Caixa Econômica Federal (a Brazilian bank), and ANJL (National Association of Legal and Sports Lawyers) request that the Plenary uphold Nunes Marques' injunction; the City of São Paulo, Anseja (a Brazilian association for the organization of local lotteries), and Abrasf (Brazilian Association of Local Lottery Companies) defend local lotteries. Fachin closed the session after the oral arguments and signaled a joint judgment with the actions of the betting companies.
