The Secretariat of Awards and Betting (SPA) has issued Normative Instruction 3, which establishes criteria for the submission of technical certificates by temporarily authorized bets. The documents must be issued by laboratories accredited by the SPA for the betting system, sportsbook, remote gaming server, and integration.
The Normative Instruction 3 regulates the submission of technical certificates by fixed quota betting operators authorized on a provisional basis and establishes a cover page model and an index of technical certificates also for fixed quota betting operators authorized on a definitive basis.
Operators must submit by January 30:
- the technical certificates for Betting System, Sports Betting Server (sportsbook), Remote Gaming Server (RGS), and integration; and
- a single online gaming certificate or a single online gaming certificate for games from a specific provider.
If the certification of the Sports Betting Server (sportsbook) and the Remote Gaming Server (RGS) is included in the Betting System certificate, information about these servers must be clearly identified in the Betting System certificate, as well as in the General Index Document.
The Remote Gaming Server (RGS) certificate can be replaced by a certificate that proves remote access to the online game aggregator server.
If the required certification is not completed by January 30, the provisionally authorized operator must send via the Betting Management System (Sigap):
I - General Index Document with information about the certificates regarding the certification already completed; and
II - request for extension of deadline in the form of Annex II, instructed with the declaration from the certifying entity.
Operators authorized on a provisional basis and those authorized on a definitive basis must send a cover page (branded report) to address certificates issued to various operators that do not expressly present the operator's data, called Business to Business (B2B) certificates.
Normative Instruction 3 contains 4 annexes:
Anexo I – General Index Document
Anexo II – Request for extension of deadline
Anexo III – Online Games Index Document
Anexo IV – Cover page model for online games certificates.
