Has nothing to do wit taxes but: recently we had some court cases where the court ruled that all losses from gambling - for losses on online sites without Austrian licence (not EU) - are illegit and the casinos must pay back the money (there is only one casino with an online licence for Austria = state owney company) - some argue that if this continues the large online casinos might withdraw from Austria.
