The Czech Republic’s gambling regulation department has confirmed a ban on slot machines in Prague is now in effect, almost four years after being agreed by authorities in the country’s capital city.
Prague city council in September 2020 approved a ban on all technical gambling games in the capital. The ban, which includes slot machines, applies to all venues, even if they hold a licence.
The city-wide ban was due to come into full effect in 2024. This meant that venues could continue to offer technical games through to the end of their licences, with the longest of these running to this year.
