Norway to Strengthen Online Gambling Regulations

Back

The Norwegian Ministry of Culture commissioned a report regarding technological developments which showed that a large portion of Norwegians were under the impression that gambling with foreign operators was legal while a smaller portion was unsure.

The legal online gambling market in the country is being challenged by foreign unlicensed operators.

Foreign operators represent a large number of adverts on Norwegian television although they are not permitted to operate in the market.

Based on the study’s findings, there have been a series of recommendations made to strengthen the regulations so it’s possible that we will see some changes in the future.
