Germany Submits New Gambling Regulations to European Union
Reading Time: < 1 minute
Germany has submitted the revised framework of its fourth edition of the “State Treaty on Gambling” to the European Union.
Despite numerous revisions, the framework has yet to be ratified by the nation’s 16 federal Länder (states).
The make-up of the treaty continues to be debated by regional MPs at the Bundestag federal council, in which 13 states must ratify the treaty by 31 March 2021 for Germany’s new gambling framework to be passed into law.
Should the mandate be ratified, Germany will establish its federal legislative framework for operating gambling services until 31 December 2028, when Länder will be allowed to revise or opt-out of the treaty.
