Russian regulators, including the Federal Tax Service and Roskomnadzor, are working on a draft to extend the self-exclusion system, traditionally used to limit access to gambling, to online marketplaces. This initiative aims to restrict purchases on platforms that may facilitate illegal gambling operations. The draft proposal, currently under discussion, seeks to enhance regulatory frameworks by enabling individuals to self-exclude from accessing such marketplaces. Authorities emphasize this measure will complement existing policies that designate which gambling sites are legally operable in Russia. The move reflects an ongoing effort to tighten control over online gambling activities and prevent illicit betting, which remains a significant concern for regulators. No final decisions or legislative approvals have yet been announced.
