Romanian lawmakers propose raising gambling age to 21
Two draft bills submitted to Romania’s Parliament propose changes to gambling rules, including raising the minimum age from 18 to 21. A separate proposal would restrict online gambling advertising between 06:00 and 24:00, prohibit influencer and sports-personality promotions, and require prominent addiction-risk warnings; both proposals call for changes to the 2009 gambling law.
The proposals could alter operators’ eligibility checks, advertising practices and required consumer warnings in Romania.
