The Belgian Gambling Commission, Kansspelcommissie – Commission des jeux de hasard (CJH), has issued advice to players and gambling operators following a Royal Decree that will set new limits for online gambling deposits.
Deposit limits to drop from €500 to €200 per week
According to the CJH, the Royal Decree has set a new mandatory deposit limit of €200 per week on all accounts at online betting sites. The current limit of €500 per week will stay in place until the new limit comes into effect on October 20th, 2022.

However, any increase in limits must first be approved by the CJH following a credit/affordability check carried out through the National Bank of Belgium. It also notes that if a player who has been approved for a deposit limit increase defaults on any payments on personal loans or credits cards as reported by the National Bank, that player’s limit will be automatically reduced to the standard €200 per week.
