On April 9, 2026, the State Agency for Control of the Sphere of Gambling and Lotteries (PlayCity Agency) in Ukraine issued Decision No. 116-Р, which revoked a prior decision issued by the Commission for the Regulation of Gambling and Lotteries. The revoked decision was Commission Decision No. 547, issued on November 14, 2024, which addressed an application submitted by limited liability company Hotel Plus (TOV "ГОТЕЛЬ ПЛЮС"). That application sought approval confirming that the company's premises met the requirements for organising and conducting gambling activities in a gaming establishment, as established under the Law of Ukraine "On State Regulation of Activities Related to the Organisation and Conduct of Gambling." The PlayCity Agency's decision to revoke the Commission's prior determination represents an administrative action affecting the regulatory status of Hotel Plus's gaming premises. The revocation was published on the agency's official website on April 9, 2026, with a downloadable PDF of the full decision made available to the public. This action falls within the regulatory framework governing gambling licensing and premises compliance in Ukraine, administered under the state control agency responsible for oversight of gambling and lottery activities.

On April 9, 2026, Ukraine’s State Agency PlayCity published Decision No. 116-P, recognising as partially invalid a 2024 decision granting Hotel Plus LLC approval confirming that its premises complied with legal requirements for organising and conducting gambling activities. The decision concerns a gambling venue located in Odesa, authorised for slot machine operations. The regulator determined that the premises do not comply with Article 38 of the Law of Ukraine “On State Regulation of Activities Concerning the Organisation and Conduct of Gambling”, as they are located within 500 metres of an educational institution. Specifically, the venue is situated approximately 325 metres from a gymnasium. As a result, the approval confirming the suitability of the premises has been declared invalid in part. The decision may be challenged before an administrative court within six months from the date it is communicated to the operator.
