What the Authority said
In a notice dated 7 October 2026, the Curaçao Gaming Authority (CGA) said its online gaming portal "will not be returned to service" and that the service arrangements behind it are ending. Existing licences remain valid, and licensing and supervision continue through alternative arrangements, with details due no later than 9 October 2026.
The CGA said availability of its digital seal will be affected and that it will shortly introduce another way for operators to show a domain is licensed. It said its response to the unauthorised access, including containing the data leak, is continuing.
What this means for the register
A Curaçao seal on a website may not work for a while. That alone does not mean a licence has lapsed. IRLG checks Curaçao licences against the CGA's own published lists, not the seal.
