Gaming permits

Overview

You may need a gaming permit if you provide gambling facilities where gambling is not the main activity, or where stakes and prizes are limited. We issue several types of gaming permit under the Gambling Act 2005.

Before you apply, make sure you need a gaming permit. In some cases, you may need a gambling premises licence instead.

Gaming permits and gambling premises licences have different requirements. For example, permit holders do not need an operating licence from the Gambling Commission, and we cannot attach conditions to most permits.
