One of the main objectives of the review of the law in question would be to review the minimum age to enter casinos in Macau. As has transpired, the order would aim to raise the minimum age to enter the casinos from 18 to 21 years.

Before attempting to change the law 16/2001, the government would have tried to find a way to exercise for an amendment to create a law so amended. Various experts in laws and regulations in Macau, however, recommended to avoid this type of maneuver.

The order to bring the minimum age for admission to casinos from 18 to 21 years has been a constant in the various governments of the former Portuguese colony. In fact, the current governor, Fernando Chui Sai On is one of its strongest representatives.

The revision of law 16/2001, at the same time, assess the situations in which prohibit the entry of a player to casinos. According to the legal representatives of Macau’s new measure would not affect the dealers, croupiers and casino employees who currently have between 18 and 21, whereas their roles in the casino are different.

For many companies that operate casinos in Macau, the new measure seems to threaten some of the revenue they got steadily in recent years with the growth of the betting market in the younger segments of the population, since the outbreak of bets online throughout the world.
