Foxtel welcomes the Government’s plan to force Netflix to pay Goods and Services tax (GST), saying that this is “the right move.” The statement comes after Treasurer Joe Hockey confirmed that the Netflix tax will be included in Tuesday’s budget.
Foxtel operates streaming service Presto in collaboration with Seven West Media. The Netflix tax would add 10 percent to digital goods bought online – including games, movies and books provided by overseas companies. That means that consumers may have to pay an extra 10 percent for Netflix.
