NOTE: All fees are subject to change.  The Commission will notify licensees of amended fee amounts by notice of rule-making. Per RCW 9.46.070, other fees on this schedule, the Commission will assess applicants all actual investigative and inspection costs.

Other Helpful Rules

WAC 230-05-104 Defining "base license fee."

(1) "Base license fee" is the fee you pay us when you:

(a) Apply for an organization license or permit; or

(b) Renew your organization's license or annual permit.

(2) "Base license fee" is the minimum annual license fee a licensed organization or permit holder will pay for operating an authorized activity.

WAC 230-05-106 Defining "maximum annual license fee."

"Maximum annual license fee" is the most you will pay to operate an authorized activity for the license year, which includes the:

(1) Base license fee; and

(2) Quarterly license fees.

WAC 230-05-122 Calculating quarterly license fees.

(1) The quarterly license fee is calculated based on the gross gambling receipts from the previous quarter as reported on your quarterly license report.

(2) Each license year, the quarterly license fees will be offset by the base license fee. (For example, if your base license fee is sixty-five dollars and your quarterly license fee is forty-five dollars for the first quarter, no additional amount is due for the first quarter. You would offset any future quarterly license fees by the remaining twenty dollars of your base license fee.)

WAC 230-05-124 Quarterly license fees and license reports.

All licensed organizations must submit quarterly license fees and license reports to us for each licensed gambling activity beginning with the first quarter of their license year. The quarterly license fee is due with the quarterly license report.

The quarterly license reports must be in the format we require and must:

COVER THE PERIOD

BE RECEIVED BY US NO LATER THAN

January 1 through March 31

April 30

April 1 through June 30

July 31

July 1 through September 30

October 31

October 1 through December 31

January 31

 

(2) Be received online at our administrative office or postmarked no later than the dates indicated in the table in subsection (1) of this section; and

(3) Be submitted even if there is no quarterly license fee payable to us; and

(4) Be accurate; and

(5) Be completed by the highest ranking executive officer or a designee. If someone other than the licensee or an employee prepares the report, the preparer must include his or her name and business telephone number on the report; and

(6) Be submitted for any period of time the license was valid even if there was no gambling activity or the gambling license was not renewed.
