Legal Summary

Peru regulates remote games and remote sports betting under Law No. 31557, as amended by Law No. 31806, with MINCETUR acting through the DGJCMT. The live authorisation register returned 86 current records across 48 unique consumer domains on 28 July 2026. A domain can have separate games and sports-betting records, so those figures are not counts of legal entities.
