Rob Cross, who lived in Hastings, was banned after his company failed to pay a large tax bill.
The 2018 world champion set up Rob Cross Darts Limited in May 2017 to receive prize money but it was liquidated in 2023.
During that time he failed to pay more than £400,000 to HM Revenue and Customs while also withdrawing £300,000 in money which should have been paid to creditors.

The 34-year-old, who is playing in the Nordic Masters in Copenhagen this weekend, entered into an Individual Voluntary Arrangement last year and will make monthly contributions to pay off the money he owes.
He will not be allowed to be a director of a company until June 2030.
Kevin Read, chief investigator at the Insolvency Service, said: “Rob Cross’ company owed more than £400,000 in corporation tax alone when it went into liquidation.
“For more than three years, he withdrew funds from the company which should have gone to HMRC and other creditors.”
