Outdoor rules in Costa Rica
Outdoor rules not yet verified
Law 7395 (1994) makes the Junta de Protección Social the only lottery operator and bans lotteries, 'tiempos', raffles and clubs paying cash prizes other than its games. The amended 1951 Raffles and Lotteries Law penalises propaganda for prohibited raffles in any medium. There is no private online gambling licence and no specific rule on gambling advertising or outdoor ads. The JPS reform bill 25.057 received a negative committee report in January 2026, and bill 25.600, a similar JPS modernisation bill, was filed in May 2026; neither has been enacted.
