On June 1, 2026, the Danish Gambling Authority published a ruling from the Frederiksberg district court imposing a DKK 34,606 fine on C.A.H. Automatservice ApS for breaching section 59(1) cf. section 3(1) of the Gambling Act. The Frederiksberg district court found C.A.H. Automatservice ApS guilty of offering gambling on slot machines without a licence from the Danish Gambling Authority. The breach occurred at the gambling premises City Bar, located at Frederiksborgvej 7, st., 2400 København NV, between June 7, 2025 and June 11, 2025. C.A.H. Automatservice ApS failed to appear in court. Given this absence and the circumstances of the case, the court proceeded as if the defendant had confessed to the offence. The ruling demonstrates the Danish Gambling Authority's enforcement of licensing requirements for gambling operations. Operators offering slot machines or other gambling activities must hold a valid licence from the Danish Gambling Authority. Operating without such authorisation constitutes a breach of the Gambling Act and may result in significant financial penalties. This enforcement action reinforces the regulatory framework governing gambling premises in Denmark and the consequences for non-compliance with licensing obligations.
