Tax Department rule relating to online bingo and raffles
SB 305 authorizes West Virginia's Tax Department to implement a specific regulatory rule governing online bingo and raffle operations. The rule, previously drafted and modified by the department, will establish requirements for businesses hosting these games. This affects online gaming operators who must comply with the rule and the Tax Department, which gains authority to enforce it. The bill does not create new tax rates or policies but enables the existing rule to take effect.
