Ukraine Gets Ready to Lead the Pack in the Global Gambling Market: Draft Law 2285-d Has Been Passed

14.07.2020

Today, on July 14, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine has passed the draft law 2285-d about the gambling business regulation at the second and final reading stage. It has been supported by 248 people’s deputies. Now the document will be forwarded to the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky to sign it. The new law will come into effect the next day after its publication date.

This long expected event will set the rise of the country to the global gambling business stardom and will allow refilling the budget, which was relentlessly emptied by the quarantine crisis.

UGW 2020

At the start of the country’s gambling market transformation, Smile-Expo will host a large exhibition in Kyiv, dedicated to the gambling business – Ukrainian Gaming Week 2020. This event will turn into a place that will gather gambling industry leaders, Ukrainian politicians, and representatives of the professional community for the first time ever after the adoption of the law.
