Belgium sets rules for local charitable tombolas and larger raffles

Belgium’s Gaming Commission said tombolas fall under the Law of 31 December 1851, as amended from 20 July 2022 to legalise local tombolas and lotteries. A 13 September 2023 royal decree allows recognised associations to hold up to four municipal raffles a year for social or charitable purposes; the National Lottery can authorise larger-scale raffles.
Recognised associations may hold up to four municipal charitable raffles annually, while larger raffles require National Lottery authorisation.
