Bulgaria’s National Revenue Agency Shuts Down More Than 2500 Unlicensed Gambling Websites This Year

So far this year, Bulgaria’s National Revenue Agency (NRA) has shut down over 2500 gambling websites operated by entities without an active gambling licence under the gambling law, NRA said in a press release.
In September, NRA Executive Director Rumen Spetsov issued over 640 decisions to halt the operations of online betting platforms without the required permits in the country. After the NRA publishes a decision, the affected websites have three days to cease operations. If they fail to comply, the NRA refers the case to the court, which may instruct internet service providers (ISPs) to block access to the non-compliant websites.
Decisions by the NRA and court rulings are available in the Online Gambling section of NRA’s website. NRA also keeps an updated register of gambling websites run by entities lacking a valid gambling operations permit.
NRA encourages online users to report unlicensed betting websites by emailing a specific address. The report should include the website’s name and the user’s ISP.
