The proposed legislation is<span>&nbsp;<\/span><strong>currently in the Romanian Senate<\/strong>, awaiting one final approval.<\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><font size=\"5\">&ldquo; the legislative piece may cause confusion as it does not provide<span>&nbsp;<\/span><strong>clear definitions<\/strong><span>&nbsp;<\/span>on what will be prohibited in terms of gambling advertising and what will be allowed&rdquo;<\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><font size=\"4\">Generally speaking, the Draft Law reads that gambling ads will only be<span>&nbsp;<\/span><strong>allowed in gambling premises<\/strong>and gambling-oriented publications. In addition, audiovisual commercial communications, that is any activities related to the promotion of gambling services, will too be banned.<\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><font size=\"4\"><span><a href=\"\/europa\/slovakia-will-ban-completely-the-industry\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color: #00f; text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">READ HERE: SLOVAKIA WILL BAN COMPLETELY THE INDUSTRY<\/a><\/span><\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><font size=\"4\">However, the wording of the proposed legislation suggests different interpretations of what will be legal and what will not, if it takes effect as a law. The Draft Law can, for instance, be interpreted as one that<span>&nbsp;<\/span><strong>prohibits the use of the Internet<\/strong><span>&nbsp;<\/span>as a medium for the promotion of gambling services.<\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><font size=\"4\">On the other hand, gambling websites may be seen as gambling premises and advertising on gambling premises will thus be legal under the proposed amendments. Here it is also important to note that Romania&rsquo;s existing gambling law allows licensed operators to advertise gambling on their websites.<\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><font size=\"4\"><span><a href=\"\/europa\/poland-crack-down-all-online-gambling-sites-until-they-get-licensed\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color: #00f; text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">READ HERE: POLAND CRACK DOWN ALL ONLINE GAMBLING SITES UNTIL THEY GET LICENSED<\/a><\/span><\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><font size=\"4\">It is believed that the lack of explicitness and clear-cut definitions will<span>&nbsp;<\/span><strong>stir further debate in relation to the proposed amendments&rsquo; adequateness<\/strong>. What is more, if adopted in its current form, the Draft Law may collide with existing advertising and gambling laws.<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Romania may launch a crackdown on gambling advertising a year after it opened its gaming and sports betting market to regulated international operations, the country\u2019s government is currently discussing a Draft Law that, if adopted, will amend the existing laws on advertising<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5964,"menu_order":664,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[2321,3186,3187],"class_list":{"0":"post-5963","1":"europe","2":"type-europe","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"tag-crackdown","8":"tag-gambling-advertising","9":"tag-romania","10":"entry"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.6 -
