Helpful information about completing your quarterly licensing report

Reporting your gross gambling receipts

You'll find the definitions for gross gambling receipts by reading Washington Administrative Code 230-05-112, where the definitions are listed by type of gambling activity.

You can use our license fee calculator to estimate your quarterly licensing fees. 

Reporting dollar values

You cannot report cents on your quarterly report. Please follow these rounding guidelines to round to the nearest dollar:

• $0.50 or less, round down
• $0.51 or more, round up

Reporting prizes paid

Prized paid means the total number of cash prizes paid out and the value of all merchandise awarded. If you purchased prizes, the value is your cost. If prizes were donated to you, the value is the estimated fair market value of the items on the date they were received as donations. If all the prized you awarded were donated to you, the "Prizes Paid" and "Donated Prizes" lines will be the same values.

Merchandise donated or purchased for prizes, but not awarded, should not be included on your quarterly report.

Late filings and late payments

A late fee of $25 per day, up to 30 days ($750), is assessed for each day you do not submit your quarterly license report or pay your quarterly license fees. For example, if you are one day late in submitting your quarterly license report, you will be assessed a $25 late fee. If you submit your report on time, but your fee is a day late, your will be assessed a $25 late fee. If you are 30 days late, you will be assessed a $750 late fee. After 30 days, administrative action may also be taken against your license.
