The Royal Decree published in the Belgian Official Gazette on 27/01/2022 specifies the new corona rules that will apply as of 28/01/2022. See http://www.ejustice.just.fgov.be/doc/rech_n.htm
As regards the gambling sector, the following measures have been adapted:
- Article 7: Activities in establishments belonging to the cultural, festive, sports, recreational and events sector are again permitted. This means the reopening of:
- Casinos
- Slot machine arcades
- Betting shops
- For the cafés: Article 5, 10°: Every person must remain seated at their own table or at the bar, except when practising pub sports or playing games of chance and when moving to the bar or a buffet. This means a reactivation of:
- Bingo machines in the cafés (closing time at 00.00)
Each establishment must comply with the minimum rules as laid down in the Royal Decree, without prejudice to the applicable protocols.
We wish everyone who was affected by the previous measures a smooth restart of their activities. We would like to ask the players to always gamble carefully and moderately.
