South Africa’s NGB directs provincial authorities to remove unlawful gambling adverts
South Africa’s National Gambling Board directed provincial licensing authorities on 1 December 2025 to review gambling adverts and remove material that breaches national or provincial rules. The directive calls for action against misleading promotions, adverts aimed at minors and material lacking responsible-gambling warnings; authorities may impose fines, licence conditions or suspensions for violations.
Provincial authorities and licensees face reviews and potential enforcement over non-compliant gambling advertising.
