In 2023, HM Revenue and Customs in the United Kingdom recorded betting duty receipts of around 680 million British pounds in 2023. This continued the general trend of growth that started in 2016, however, figures in the last 20 years have largely been smaller than rates recorded between 1989 and 1995. A large factor in this is the decline of duty receipts from pool betting.
