The Latvian Lotteries and Gambling Supervision Inspection (IAUI) has followed up on previous announcements this month by adding additional domains to its blacklist of gambling websites.
Sites that are included on the list are not allowed to operate in Latvia.
Sky Bet is the most high-profile name to have been added to the list, with its Skybet.com, Skypoker.com and Skyvegas.com website now banned in the country.
Other new additions to the blacklist include Netbet.com, Redbet.com, Redflushcasino.com and lv.unibet-2.com.
This is the third time that the list has been updated this month, with new names having been added last week and earlier on in August.
The blacklist has been published under the basis of the Electronic Communications Law, which came into effect on August 1.
In May, the regulator signed a co-operation agreement with the gambling authorities in Latvia’s neighbouring Baltic states of Lithuania and Estonia covering the “sharing or exchange of good practices in the field of supervision and control of the organisation of lotteries and gambling”.
