How to Compute and Pay Gambling Duty for Gaming Machines, Tombola, Continuous Lucky Draw and Single/Scheduled Lottery

Gaming-machine duty and club-lottery duty use different rates and GST adjustments.

Source checked · 11 October 2026

Key requirements

For non-GST-registered clubs, gaming-machine duty is 9.5% of turnover and tombola, continuous lucky draw or single/scheduled lottery duty is 30% of sales. For GST-registered clubs, deduct GST chargeable from turnover or sales before applying those duty rates. At 9% GST, the page uses 9/109 of turnover less total winnings for machines and 9/109 of sales less cash prizes for lotteries. Prizes in kind are not cash-prize deductions in that GST calculation. Support machine turnover with meter differences. If cascade payouts are not claimed, keep the treatment consistent in PL-R and the GST return.
