The European Gambling and Amusement Federation (EUROMAT) has officially submitted a complaint to the European Commission, accusing Croatia of breaching EU law by pushing through amendments to its Gambling Act without following the required notification process.
According to EUROMAT, the Croatian government bypassed the Technical Regulation Information System (TRIS) procedure, mandatory under EU Directive 2015/1535. This directive ensures that any member state introducing technical regulations that could impact market access or service provision must inform the Commission before the changes take effect.
