Países Bajos – KSA confirma el retraso en el lanzamiento del juego online holandés

Dutch gaming regulator Kansspelautoriteit (KSA) has confirmed that the Remote Gambling Act (Koa) will be delayed and is now expected to enter into force on March 1 2021, six months later then the initially envisioned September 1, 2021.

On September 1 2021, the Central Register of Exclusion of Games of Chance (Cruks) will also come into effect for both online and land-based providers of games of chance.

Sander Dekker, the Minister for Legal Protection of the Ministry of Justice and Security, sent to the Lower House, highlighting the timetable after a tour of all those involved.

The Remote Games of Chance Act legalises and regulates online games of chance under strict conditions, but it also has consequences for the current country-based providers of risky games of chance. For example, arcades and locations of Holland Casino will have strict requirements in the field of addiction prevention and advertising.
