Laws and regulation

Kazakhstan regulates the industry by the law "On the gaming business" (with subsequent amendments).

Casinos and slot machine halls are allowed only in two special zones: the district of g.

Konaev (Kapchagay) and Shchuchinsko-Burabay resort area.

Operators are required to have a license, capital, security, video surveillance, AML/KYC, 21 + age tolerance, as well as territorial and regime restrictions.

Online casinos are prohibited; betting and betting are allowed under license with mandatory betting, player identification and financial monitoring (age usually 18 +).

Advertising and payments in favor of illegal sites are limited, fines, blocking and revocation of licenses are provided for violations.

The general vector is the concentration of gambling activity in special zones and strict control over online risks.
