Amusement arcades
Contact the municipality if you want to open or take over an amusement arcade.
If you want to install a gaming machine, you need a gaming machine licence. You can only apply for a gaming machine licence only if you operate an amusement arcade or if you have a high-treshold establishment. An establishment is high-treshold if:
- the location is used as a café or restaurant
- you have a valid alcohol and catering licence for this location
- the activities are suitable for persons aged 18 and over
To apply for a gaming machine licence, you also need other permits:
- For a high-treshold establishment, you need a valid alcohol and catering licence.
- For an amusement arcade, you need a valid operating permit for an amusement arcade.
You pay a fee for this service. For more information, contact the municipality.
