Gambling Laws in Colombia

Gambling in Colombia is legal in all of its variety. The Colombian Constitution in article 336 gives an exclusive right to the state to exploit the monopoly on games of chance in the country. In accordance with the Law of Own Regime (Law 643) from 2001 (Ley 643 de 2001), the state administers casinos, bingos, online lotto, and betting. Within the Colombian gambling legislation, the Agreement No.4 from 24th of May 2016 is considered to be central for the regulation of online gambling, as it is the act that for the first time regulated online gambling in the country. Thus, according to this act, all forms of online gambling are legal in Colombia.  The regulatory body of the land-based gambling activities in the country, with the exception of lotto games, is Coljuegos, an institution closely linked to the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit. It was formed by Decree 4142 of November 3, 2011, as a decentralized company of the state, with the objectives to exploit, administer, operate and issue regulations regarding the games of chance. The legal functioning of the online gambling sector is supervised by the same body. Besides its function as supervisor, Coljuegos is the official body that grants licenses to all Colombian casinos, sportsbooks, or other types of gambling providers, brick and mortar as well as online. On the other side, the organization of lotto games is supervised by the National Council of Games of Chance (Consejo Nacional de Juegos de Suerte y Azar-CNJSA) and the National Health Superintendence  (La Superintendencia Nacional de Salud) According to Colombian gambling laws minors, under 18 years of age are prohibited to participate in gambling activities.
