# When will the UK cut or repeal its digital services tax?

Live · $622 traded · listed on Kalshi

## About

A market resolves to Yes on a UK government announcement that abolishes the digital services tax, reduces its rate, raises either of its revenue thresholds, suspends it, or exempts companies from its scope. There is no minimum size and the measure need not be legislated or in force before the strike date. A rate increase, or a change that only broadens the tax, does not resolve any market.

An announcement qualifies if it involves any of the following:

Formal commitment by the head of government with constitutional authority
Official statements by authorized ministers
Official press releases
Formal declarations during government proceedings
Announcements with a specified future implementation date

Phased implementation announcements, and multi-party agreements to which the UK is a signatory, also qualify.

The following do NOT qualify:

Preliminary discussions
Conditional agreements contingent on circumstances
Opposition party statements
Leaked documents or unofficial reports not confirmed by government sources
Think-tank recommendations
General aspirations without specific commitment
Draft legislation without approval or adoption
Regional or sub-national actions
Retraction of previously announced commitments
