Belgium’s new €200 weekly loss limit has officially come into effect, three months after a royal decree on the subject was published.
The lower limit was announced in July by a royal decree, having been put forward by Minister of Justice Vincent Van Quickenborne. Previously, net deposits were limited to €500 per week, after an April 2020 decree.
The limit will continue to apply on a per-site basis, after attempts to introduce a “global” limit – to apply across all operators – fell through.
Players may request to have their limit raised, but only if they are not registered as defaulters with the Central Individual Credit Register of the National Bank.
