ONJN Compliance for Class II Licensees
Obtaining the Class II license is just the beginning: maintaining it requires a set of ongoing obligations, significantly expanded by Law 141/2025 and Order no. 33/2025. We provide integrated management of these obligations: implementing the reporting and payment calendar, monthly screening of the client portfolio against the ONJN blacklist, preparing and submitting notifications for significant changes, assessing AML and GDPR obligations, and representing the company in its relationship with the authority.
Overview
Obtaining the Class II license is just the beginning: maintaining it requires a set of ongoing obligations, significantly expanded by Law 141/2025 and Order no. 33/2025. Non-compliance has real consequences — ONJN has actively imposed sanctions, including license revocation.
The most important monthly obligation applies to software, platform, and payment processing providers: transmitting to ONJN, no later than the 10th of each month, a consolidated report on players whose access was blocked and their countries of origin. These categories must also maintain a permanent report available on ONJN request.
All Class II license holders must notify ONJN of any significant change to the data on which the license was issued: beneficial owner, directors, registered address, name, criminal record or share capital — within 48 hours for online submission or 5 working days for postal submission.
We provide integrated management of these obligations: implementing the reporting and payment calendar, monthly screening of the client portfolio against the ONJN blacklist, assessing AML and GDPR obligations, and representing the company before the authority.
Process & Timeline
Audit of applicable obligations
We establish, depending on the licensing categories, which obligations actually apply to the company: monthly reporting, on-demand reports, notifications, annual payments.
Compliance calendar
We implement the reporting and payment calendar: access blocking reporting by the 10th of each month, annual fee at least 10 days before the license year anniversary, responsible gaming contribution.
Client portfolio screening
We verify monthly that contractual partners hold a Class I license and are not on the ONJN blacklist, to prevent the provision of prohibited services.
Notification of significant changes
We prepare and submit notifications to ONJN regarding changes in beneficial owner, directors, registered address, name, criminal record or share capital, within the legal deadlines.
AML and GDPR compliance
We assess whether the activity qualifies the company as an obliged entity under Law 129/2019 and structure the GDPR framework: Art. 28 contracts, data retention, incident notification, international transfers.
Representation before ONJN
We assist the company in inspections and correspondence with ONJN and formulate the necessary defenses in sanctioning proceedings, to prevent license revocation.
