KSA warns against operating unlicensed slot machines in the Netherlands

Enforcement & compliance

The Kansspelautoriteit said it is monitoring unauthorised slot-machine use in the Netherlands and working with police and regional and national information centres. The regulator warned that machines may be sold but cannot be operated without the required permits. Its concern follows closures and planned closures of licensed casinos and gaming arcades.

Operators and venue owners must hold the required permits to run physical slot machines in the Netherlands.
