Curacao Casino License Requirements

Curacao Company

A company must be properly set up and acknowledged within the legal parameters of the jurisdiction. Any online gaming enterprise aiming to operate should be officially registered in Curacao, along with a valid physical address.

Local Representative

Having a local representative is essential. Pursuing a Curacao gambling license without such a representative is ineffective. If finding a representative is problematic, an option is to appoint a local resident as the managing director.

Detailed Game Descriptions

When seeking licenses or permissions to operate online gaming platforms, especially in jurisdictions like Curacao, it's essential that applicants provide thorough and detailed descriptions of the games they wish to offer.

Web Platform Regulations

Curacao's governing agencies mandate clear guidelines on how a company's website should operate. Given the international scope of online platforms, securing a license in Curacao demands strict compliance with responsible gaming standards.

Proof of Domain Ownership

The distinctive web address or domain name of your gaming portal must be legally under your company's ownership. This proof is vital during the licensing procedure.

In-jurisdiction Physical Server

Those aiming for a license must host a physical server, essentially a high-capacity computer in a data center, within Curacao's boundaries.

Technical Audit

Those seeking a license should provide a technical review of each gaming software they use. This review, ideally from an accredited testing body, confirms the software's compliance with remote gambling and software norms.

AML Protocols Implimentation

Implementing Anti-Money Laundering (AML) measures is non-negotiable. Applicants should detail their AML strategies, especially as they pertain to individual players.

RNG Certificate Submission

Possessing a Random Number Generator Certificate is crucial. This certificate guarantees the unbiased and random nature of results in games, assuring the transparency and fairness of payouts. Operating casinos or those about to start must have this certification.
