Find licensees

The Gambling Commission publishes a list of applicants for an operating licence (remote and non-remote). The lists display the applications, in alphabetical order by operator, that have been received and are being processed.

The lists contain details of operators whose licences have been granted, and as many applicants as possible (whilst an application is pending we give applicants the opportunity to ask for confidentiality if there are good reasons). As a result the list may not provide comprehensive details of every application we have received.

Find personal licence holders

The Gambling Commission publishes a list of granted personal licences. This list displays the licensees in alphabetical order. There are two types of personal licence:

Personal Management Licence

A Personal Management Licence (PML) is required by all persons who occupy a specified management office in respect of the holder of an operating licence. Those who are responsible for such management functions, whatever their actual job title, will require PMLs, unless exempt under the small-scale operator exemption.

Personal Functional Licence

A Personal Functional Licence (PFL) is required by those individuals who perform any function which enables them to influence the outcome of gambling, or relating to the receiving or paying of money in connection with gambling.

Premises licences

Information on premises licences can be obtained directly from the relevant licensing authority. In addition, the Gambling Commission holds a premises licence register consisting of information obtained directly from licensing authorities. The accuracy of the register is not therefore guaranteed by us.

Information on premises licences is available on request by telephoning us on 0121 230 6666.
