Brazilian Senate committee approves restrictions on betting advertising in bill
Brazil’s Senate Science and Technology Committee approved a substitute version of Bill 2,470/2026 on 2 September, proposing broad restrictions on fixed-odds betting advertising and sponsorship. The proposal would also prohibit certain products and create a criminal offence for paid promotion of unauthorised operators; it now requires further legislative approval and is not law.
Operators would face major advertising, sponsorship and product restrictions if the bill completes the legislative process.
