A post goes up when the Zambia Revenue Authority issues a practice note on the levy. It also goes up when the Betting Control and Licensing Board or the tourism ministry changes a licence, when Parliament amends the Betting Control Act, or when a ranked brand changes its K offer or its MTN and Airtel Money routes.

The Zambia ranking is revised as the post goes up. Under the 5% levy a post costs out a K100 deposit and a K500 withdrawal, and cites the Act, the ZRA note or the register that applies.

The first post explains the 5% betting levy that replaced the withholding tax on 1 January 2026: K5 on a K100 deposit, K25 on a K500 withdrawal, and the ZRA Practice Note that tells operators how to collect it.
