Duration of club gaming and machine permits
A club gaming permit or club machine permit lasts for ten years unless it ceases to have effect because it is surrendered or lapses.
In England and Wales
In England and Wales, a club gaming or machine permit that was granted under a fast track procedure (by those clubs with Club Premises Certificates under the Licensing Act 2003) does not expire.
It only ceases to have effect if it is:
- surrendered
- cancelled
- forfeited, or
- it lapses because the club premises certificate is not in place.
In Scotland
In Scotland, there is no fast-track procedure. Permits will need to be renewed after 10 years.
