The Permanent Commission of the Congress of the Union received a draft resolution on 13 May 2026 calling on the Interior Ministry to publish, in open-data format, every permit issued to the country’s casinos and sportsbooks, and to name every authorized online betting platform operating in Mexico.
The proposal comes from Federal Deputy Rubén Ignacio Moreira Valdez… The permits at issue cover what Mexican law calls Centros de Apuestas Remotas y Salas de Sorteos — remote betting centres and number-draw halls, or CARSS — described in the text as “commonly known as casinos”. Moreira frames the request as a measure to strengthen the fight against money laundering in the betting and lottery sector.
