Jamaican Senate approves casino regulations ahead of market launch

Jamaica’s Senate approved the Casino Gaming (General) Regulations 2025, following the House of Representatives’ endorsement in February. The rules establish licensing, reporting, fees and enforcement requirements, as well as provisions on intoxicated patrons, minors, player activity and disputes. The regulations provide a framework for the Casino Gaming Act of 2010; the first regulated casino is expected at Princess Grand Jamaica, but no opening date has been confirmed.
