Oxide interfaces are a source of spin-orbit coupling which can lead to novel spin-to-charge conversion effects. In this work the contribution of the Bi$_2$O$_3$ interface to the anomalous Hall effect of Co is experimentally studied in Co/Bi$_2$O$_3$ bilayers. We evidence a variation of 40% in the AHE of Co when a Bi$_2$O$_3$ capping layer is added to the ferromagnet. This strong variation is attributed to an additional source of asymmetric transport in Co/Bi$_2$O$_3$ bilayers that originates from the Co/Bi$_2$O$_3$ interface and contributes to the skew scattering.
