Can I offer contests that involve international sports in Connecticut? What are the requirements?
Based on the documents provided, it appears that contests involving international sports are not explicitly mentioned in Connecticut’s regulations for online gaming and fantasy contests. However, it is important to note that an individual may only participate in a fantasy contest outside of the reservations of the Mashantucket Pequot Tribe and the Mohegan Tribe of Indians of Connecticut if the contest is authorized pursuant to section 12-852 or 12-853, and the individual has attained the age of eighteen [1.2]. Additionally, online gaming operators in Connecticut are not allowed to operate an online casino game unless the game has been certified by a licensed independent testing laboratory as provided for in [12 RCSA 865-15]. The online gaming operator is responsible for all costs associated with testing and obtaining such certification [1.2].
It is recommended that you consult with a legal professional to determine the specific requirements and regulations for offering contests involving international sports in Connecticut.
