Gambling fees, fines and penalties

Gambling fees are charged for licence applications, and a range of other activities relating to the licensing system. This page outlines these fees, as well as offences and penalties.

Any application submitted must be accompanied by the correct fee. Failure to submit the correct fee will result in the application being returned.

On 1 July each year, government fees and fines associated with non-compliance are increased automatically under the Monetary Units Act 2004.

The increases to application fees and fines for non-compliance with gambling laws occur immediately.

The annual rate for fees is available on the Department of Treasury and Finance website.

Offences and penalties

Gambling and gambling-related offences are regulated under the Gambling Regulation Act 2003.

The legislation consolidates the various offences previously relating to lotteries, unlawful games, betting, totalisators and betting exchanges, replacing them with three new offences relating to conducting 'unauthorised gambling'.

See Gambling and gambling-related offences for more information.
