HM Revenue and Customs

We have an information sharing agreement with HMRC (opens in new tab) which sets out the practical arrangements required to support the provisions of the Gambling Act 2005 and governs the disclosure of information.

HMRC has responsibility for the administration and collection of duties related to gambling, including:

  • bingo
  • gaming
  • general betting
  • pool betting
  • lottery
  • remote gaming
  • machine games duties.

This means that both organisations are often in possession of information that is of use to one another. By utilising the information sharing agreement, we can regularly help each other’s inquiries and investigations.
