Gaming Machines: Excise Duties
- Question
-
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if he will make an assessment of the potential merits of allowing businesses in the land-based gambling sector that pay Machine Games Duty to reclaim VAT.
- Answer
-
The takings from gaming machines that are subject to Machine Games Duty are exempt from VAT. This means that businesses do not have to charge any VAT on the machine takings but, in line with the normal VAT rules, they cannot reclaim VAT on related costs.
There are no plans to review the VAT liability of this income.
