Gaming Laboratories International on Tuesday announced it has been officially listed by Uzbekistan’s regulatory authority, National Agency of Perspective Projects of the Republic of Uzbekistan, among laboratories whose testing and certification reports are accepted.
Operators and suppliers can now use GLI’s certification reports to launch their gaming products in the Uzbekistan market, ensuring a smooth and compliant path to market entry. The market is entering its operational phase, with four licenses issued across two operators.
“Uzbekistan is on track to become a key regulated market in Central Asia and GLI is proud to be named among the first testing laboratories whose certification reports are accepted under the new framework,” GLI Government & Regulatory Affairs Manager – EMEIA Lucas Zavarise said in a statement. “It reflects the depth of regulatory experience we bring to emerging markets. The NAPP leadership wants to ensure the growth of gaming unfolds in a controlled and sustainable way, and GLI is pleased to apply our global regulatory experience as Uzbekistan and the wider Central Asian gaming market continue to develop.”
This month, GLI and NAPP leadership met to discuss the new framework and align on how GLI can support the market’s long-term growth. Because parts of the technical framework are still being established, GLI remains in active dialogue with NAPP as it works to refine the framework.
