Dutch regulator the Kansspelautoriteit (KSA) has confirmed that it expects to grant around 35 licences for online gambling, after its igaming regulation comes into force.
The KSA said it expects to receive around 40 licence applications, many of which will come from international operators, when the Remote Gambling Act comes into effect on 1 April.
The regulator has stated this in its annual report 2020, alongside key requirements for licence holders, and the additional powers granted to the KSA to tackle illegal gambling activities.
The report reaffimed the importance for operators to abide by the parts of the Remote Gambling Act concerning addiction prevention and consumer protection.
