Two technical-compliance developments attach to Bill No. 403. First, the Junta de Control de Juegos (JCJ) gains expanded real-time technological monitoring powers over the gambling industry once the bill takes effect, moving supervision away from periodic reporting toward continuous, technology-enabled oversight of licensed operators. Second, the bill mandates biometric identity verification for online gambling platforms, a requirement that will oblige operators to integrate new identity-verification technology ahead of the bill's effective date. Both requirements are tied to the same enacted-not-yet-effective legislative vehicle and therefore carry mixed durability and Probable confidence: they were passed by the National Assembly but awaited presidential signature as of the most recent, end-July 2026 reporting. Operators should treat both the monitoring-powers expansion and the biometric mandate as probable near-term technical-compliance obligations rather than confirmed, currently binding ones.
