The Curacao Gaming Control Board (GCB) reopened its GCB Portal on July 15th, and the portal is accepting applications and processing them under the current NOOGH legislation. B2C, B2B2C and B2B operators may all make applications HERE
Applications submitted on or before the previous April 30th deadline will be prioritised, with the primary focus remaining the processing of those received within the original stipulated timeframe.
All applicants are referred to the Application Submission Guidelines published in March on the GCB website and the Application Manual published on the GCB portal.
Operators are advised to check the portal on a regular basis, and should upload documents on the relevant section of the portal, rather than submit them by email or messaging system.
The GCB reminds users that no Master Licenses will be renewed after their expiration dates. The first expiration date is in August 2024, and the last is in January 2025. If the LOK is enacted before any of these expiration dates, the Master License will automatically end on the enactment date.
Certificate of Operation Sublicensees that have applications in progress but have not been granted a direct license at a time that their associated Master License expires will be offered a temporary Certificate of Operation to facilitate continuation of operations.
