Casino License Jurisdictions

A gambling control board is a government agency responsible for regulating casinos and other forms of gaming. Gaming laws are enforced by the regulatory body and will vary depending on the geographical region of the jurisdiction. A gaming control board is the authority for propagating rules and regulations within the jurisdiction and determines how the gaming should be organized and operated.

Licenses to operate are issued after an assessment has been determined that there is honesty, integrity and good character of the applicant. Before granting a license, a complete background check and investigation is required for the prevention of organized crime and objectionable potential operators. Each applicant may be required to submit information that includes: previous business endeavors, criminal records and financial stability.

Some gambling establishments have multiple jurisdictions that can be processed through a single multi-jurisdiction application form. Most gambling control boards are accountable for enforcing and implementing the rules and regulations set forth. This also covers other areas including accounting systems, rules of games, auditing and to hear and decide civil cases.
