Enforcement: How hard does the regulator enforce?

The DGJA's first formal acts on beginning operations, issued 13 October 2026, were Resolutions 01-2026 and 02-2026. Resolution 01-2026 bans the opening of new lottery banks, agencies, gambling establishments and vending-machine installations in prohibited locations. Resolution 02-2026 gives operators a non-extendable 30-calendar-day window to declare under oath any shops opened irregularly since 2023, with declaration conferring no automatic regularisation of that shop's status. Trade reporting on these resolutions indicates sanctions for non-compliance may extend to an offender's other shops and lottery draws, not only the non-compliant location itself, a feature that broadens the practical stakes of the declaration window considerably. No primary DGJA or Official Gazette text for either resolution was independently retrieved this period; the above rests on trade-press and law-firm secondary reporting pending direct regulator-site confirmation.
