The Special Regulations comprise the regulatory acts issued by the Hellenic Gaming Commission (HGC) that apply to specific categories of gambling activities and supervised entities, according to the nature of the services they provide.
These Regulations establish the specific rules, conditions, and requirements governing the organization, operation, conduct, and supervision of particular gambling sectors, including online gaming, numerical lotteries, state lotteries, mutual horse-race betting, Video Lottery Terminal (VLT) gaming, land-based casinos, and electronic technical-amusement games.
The Special Regulations complement the Horizontal Application Regulations, collectively forming a comprehensive regulatory framework that addresses the unique characteristics, technical requirements, operational aspects, and regulatory risks associated with each gaming category.
By providing tailored regulatory provisions, they support the effective supervision of gambling activities, ensure compliance with applicable legislation, and contribute to the integrity, transparency, and sustainability of the regulated gaming market.
