Peru regulator plans bill extending gambling rules to currently unregulated activities
Peru’s Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism is preparing a bill to extend gambling regulation beyond online gaming and sports betting to activities including prediction markets, prize draws and raffles, director general Yuri Guerra Padilla said. Guerra said the bill was about 60% complete and the ministry intended to introduce it before the end of 2026; he also said officials were reviewing tighter advertising restrictions but not an outright ban.
The proposed expansion could bring currently unregulated gambling activities into Peru’s licensing framework.
