AIEJA urges Mexico to update gambling law before 2026 World Cup
Mexico’s gambling law is nearing revision, with the Secretariat of the Interior in the final drafting stage after consultations with industry participants, AIEJA president Miguel Ángel Ochoa Sánchez said. The 1947 law does not address digital platforms, while AIEJA says reform could limit unregulated offshore betting and improve consumer protection ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
A revised framework could determine how operators serve betting demand around the 2026 World Cup.
