Folks,
I'm sure we have some pro-punters lurking on here and I am finding it difficult to wade through the legislation and get some answers on this topic so I have a few questions relating primarily to taxation of gambling income.
1. At what point (If any) does a punter who lays/bets on exchanges have to pay income tax and declare himself as a pro-punter?
2. What are the licensing/registration requirements of these activities? Is there a threshold at which you have to register as a bookmaker if you are making a living laying horses on the exchanges?
All help and information would be appreciated.
Nick
