VIDEO GAMING (GENERAL) > INDEPENDENT TESTING LABORATORIES
Short Summary
This document governs the approval process for video gaming equipment in Illinois. It applies to licensees who wish to have their video gaming equipment approved for play. The equipment must undergo testing by an independent outside testing laboratory before being reviewed by the Administrator. The licensee is required to cooperate with the testing laboratory and provide all necessary equipment and information. The testing laboratory must notify the Administrator upon receiving a request to test video gaming equipment, providing details such as the licensee’s information, product description, and date of request. Critical Program Storage Media, which includes software involved in game operation and calculation, must be verified using an approved third-party methodology. The Administrator may request additional information and testing if necessary. The Administrator reviews the testing report and considers criteria such as technical standards and the impact on the integrity and security of video gaming in the state. If approved, the Administrator provides electronic approval, and if denied, the licensee is notified in writing. The Administrator has the authority to revoke approvals under certain criteria. This document was added to the Illinois Administrative Code in December 2019.
