Third-Party Exclusion

Responsible GamingVERIFIED

Exclusion initiated by a family member. In Macau a spouse, ascendant, descendant or second-degree collateral relative may apply, but the interdiction has no effect unless the person concerned confirms it (Law 10/2012, Art. 6(1)). There is no unilateral family exclusion in Macau.

In practice

A frequent error in English-language accounts, which often describe Macau as allowing unilateral family exclusion.

One entry from the Casino Industry Glossary, 1,090 terms written for surveillance, compliance and operations professionals rather than for players. Definitions describe industry usage; where a term carries a regulatory meaning, verify against the instrument that governs your jurisdiction.
