Regulation 4 Bingo-promoters

The notification and application for registration required by paragraph 10(1) or (1A) of Schedule 3 to the Act^f1 (notification and application for registration by a person who intends to promote, or has begun to promote, the playing of chargeable bingo) must be made on an application form provided by the Commissioners.

An application form must contain such information as the Commissioners think is necessary for the administration of bingo duty and the protection of the revenue from that duty.

The Commissioners may provide different application forms for different purposes; in particular, they may provide application forms that are suitable for electronic transmission.

If there is any change in the information contained in his application form, or subsequently notified to the Commissioners in accordance with this paragraph, a registered bingo-promoter must, within seven days of that change, notify the Commissioners in writing.

A registered bingo-promoter who ceases to promote the playing of chargeable bingo must, within seven days of that cessation, notify the Commissioners in writing.
