Dienstleistungsbeschreibung
Games with the possibility of winning - apply for a permit
Anyone who wants to organise a (different) gambling activity with the possibility of winning on a commercial basis requires a permit from the responsible Public Order Office (Ordnungsamt).
Permission must be applied by the organiser of the game in question.
The permit is linked to a specific person, a specific game and a specific venue. A separate permit is required for each individual gambling activity, even if the same game is organised more than once. If the gambling is taken over by another trader, the latter requires a new permit.
The "other" gambling activities are exclusively games of skill, which are usually operated in the form of skill machines and in which the prize is money or goods. A game of skill is a game in which the person playing can determine the outcome of the game and thus win or lose with a high degree of probability according to the game equipment and the rules of the game through skill or his or her own knowledge. In contrast, in games of chance, the decision on winning and losing is predominantly determined by coincidence.
Any person who operates another gambling activity with the possibility of winning without a required permit is acting in breach of the regulations and may be punished with a fine of up to EUR 5,000.00.
Certain gambling with the possibility of winning may also be organised without a permit. In general, these are prize and winning games with goods worth no more than EUR 60.00. You can find further information under "Legal basis".
