Casino and Gambling Licensing: A Complete Guide
Casino and Gambling Licensing covers a wide range of permits: slot salons, casinos, gaming halls, and club tables. Each type has different permit fees and territorial requirements. For example, opening a slot salon is much cheaper than a casino, though regulations are strict there too. Before starting the business, it is necessary to check the location (prohibited zones), technical compliance of the building, and submit financial guarantees. The licensing process is complex and requires detailed knowledge of both tax and administrative law.
