Procedure details

The license for the operation of a betting agency is tied to a specific person and location. The licensing authority must therefore be informed immediately of any changes to the operational circumstances or other changes to the circumstances relevant to the granting of the license in order to be able to amend the license accordingly if necessary. This includes, for example, a change in the legal form of the operator and a change in the person authorized to represent/responsible.

Your operational circumstances or other circumstances relevant to the granting of a license to operate a betting agency have changed.

  • Presentation of the facts underlying the amendment

The application to amend the license to operate a betting agency must be submitted by the sports betting organizer or operator to the government in whose district the betting agency is located.

The amended permit notice is issued to the betting agency operator.

The costs depend on the administrative effort for the specific change applied for and are within the fee range for a license to operate a betting agency. This is between EUR 20.00 and EUR 5,000.00 (tariff no. 2.IV.1/2.1).

Changes to the legal form must be notified at least one month before they are intended to take effect.

about 6-8 weeks

In the event of a change of organizer, a change of operator or a relocation of operations, a new application for a permit to operate a betting shop must be submitted. Further information can be found under "Related topics".
