Act No. 30/2019 Coll. on Gambling Games remains the durable, primary governing instrument, with URHH functioning as licensing and supervisory authority since 1 March 2019. This cycle's material addition is URHH's acquisition of a new consumer-protection supervisory competence, effective 1 February 2026 under the separately-legislated Act No. 108/2024 Z.z. This mixed-durability layering — a newer act supplementing rather than replacing the 2019 statute — expands the regulator's remit without altering the foundational licensing architecture. No change to licence types, conditions, renewal, or suspension/revocation procedures under Act No. 30/2019 was evidenced this cycle.
