When to use this guide

Gaming machine duty is payable on your gaming machine profits

This is the difference between the monthly turnover and monthly wins for a gaming machine operator.

From 1 October 2004 Inland Revenue is collecting the problem gambling levy (PGL) to fund services for the prevention and treatment of problem gambling. The levy is being collected as part of gaming machine duty.

For periods after 1 October 2004 the total payable includes:

• gaming machine duty at 20% of the gaming machine profits
• net problem gambling levy at 1.11% of the gaming machine profits
• plus GST

If this is your last gaming machine duty return, please attach a letter giving details of when you stopped operating.
