Curacao licensing was overhauled by the National Ordinance on Games of Chance (LOK), which took effect on 24 December 2024 and abolished the old master and sub-licence model. All licences are now issued directly by the Curacao Gaming Authority (CGA), which maintains a public register, conducts its own beneficial ownership checks and holds suspension and revocation powers. Legacy sub-licences expired in January 2025, and transitional seals expired in October 2025, so an operator still displaying old sub-licence credentials is not properly licensed. Always verify the licence number against the CGA public register rather than trusting a footer seal.
