As documented on the forum here on Casinomeister yesterday, the KSA ( Kansspelautoriteit ) who are responsible for overseeing the regulation of gambling in Holland, have named the first ten gambling operators who will receive a license that will allow them to offer games of chance via the internet from 1 October 2021.
The ten operators are:

- NSUS Malta Limited
- Play North Ltd
- Tombola Limited
- Hillside (New Media Malta) Plc
- Bingoal Netherlands BV

In an announcement on their website which can be read here, the KSA also confirm that they will soon publish a gambling guide which will allow players who reside in Holland to check to see if an operator has a licence to facilitate games of chance in the country.
One such operator who has been awarded a license is Hillside ( New Media Malta ) Plc, who own and operate the UK brand Bet365 who operate the Casinomeister Accredited Bet365 Casino.
Furthermore the KSA states: “The Gaming Authority urges people who want to gamble online to do so with a provider licensed by the Gaming Authority.”
“A legal provider is supervised by the Gaming Authority. This creates a safe environment: the player is assured of a fair game and the provider must make sure that the player does not exceed his limits.”
