Belgium’s Gaming Commission said a 5 July 2024 decision amended the inspection protocol for gaming machines in class III establishments. The change requires the game software to complete an age check before a machine can be activated through an identity-card reader; participation in class III gambling is prohibited for people under 21.
Class III operators must ensure machine software verifies a player’s age before enabling play.
