Municipality Krimpenerwaard: Permit for gaming machines and amusement arcades
If you want to place a slot machine in your business, you need a attendance permit. You can apply for this permit at the municipality. You do not need a presence permit for a skill based machine.
Only slot machine arcades and catering establishments can obtain an attendance permit. The owner of a slot machine or gaming machine must also have an operating license for this. You can request this at the Kansspelautoriteit.
Do you own a slot machine arcade? Then you can apply for both permits at the same time from the municipality. You can apply for the operating permit for slot machines and the attendance permit with one form.
Do you own a catering business? Then you must apply for an attendance permit from the municipality. Gaming machines are only allowed in ‘accessible catering establishments’. That is to say cafes or restaurants, where there are no other activities that attract their own flow of visitors, such as a bowling center. In addition, the activities must be aimed at persons aged 18 and older.
You can submit your application by post. Complete the form and send it to the municipality.
You pay a fee for this service. For more information, visit the website of the municipality.
You will receive a response to your application within 8 weeks.
