Summary/Abstract: Charging income tax on winnings from gambling games is one of the most frequently used forms of deriving income from gambling by the state and local government units, with very diverse solutions applied in this respect. In Poland, the taxation of winnings mostly depends on the country in which games are organised – i.e. whether it is a European Union Member State, a State of the European Economic Area or a different State. The other criterion behind the amount of the tax burden is a type of game in which the winnings were obtained. Although more and more people make a stable profit from online gambling, mainly poker and sport wagering, tax law regulations do not differentiate, however, between the tax situation of professional and occasional players.
