Machine Games Duty (MGD)

All locations must register for MGD before they make any gaming machine(s) available to play.
 

Machine Games Duty (MGD) is payable on the net takings of any machine having the facility to pay out a cash prize greater than the cost to play. This includes gaming machines of all categories and quiz machines that pay out cash

A quarterly return is required to confirm your payment amount and records should be kept for future reference.

 

Category B3A machines (exclusive to clubs) are exempt from MGD. Club pull tab vending machines are also exempt from all taxes.

Note: HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) could levy a penalty if you provide machine games for play before your registration is fully processed and your details entered on the MGD Register. Download the HMRC Guide for Registering Machine Games Duty here.
