Promotional and audiotex lotteries can be organized by legal persons, physical persons or organizational units that do not have legal personality after obtaining permission. The permission for organization of the promotional or audiotex lottery is issued by Ministry of Finance if the lottery is nationwide or organized in a few provinces or by Tax Chamber in case of lotteries organized within the territory of single province.

After an order from our Partners/ Clients, Avantis prepares all necessary documents, advises and helps in obtaining necessary permission. Avantis can also act as formal organizer of the lottery and take over all related responsibilities.

In order to obtain permission it is necessary to submit the documents listed below:

• Application for granting the permission for organizing a promotional or audiotex lottery
• Regulations of the planned lottery
• Copy from KRS - Krajowy Rejestr Sądowy (National Court Register) or other trade register, or full personal data of physical person
• Bank guarantee of prizes withdrawal
• Possible power of attorney for a person representing an Organizer before Ministry of Finance/ Director or Chief of Tax Chamber

Avantis employees advise when and which documents are to be submitted and prepare the lottery regulations.

Time necessary for obtaining the permission is, according to the Act on Games and Mutual Wagering , 2 months. Properly completed documents and correct regulations usually allow for shortening this period.

For issuing the permission it is necessary to pay not-returnable charge equal to 10% gross value (incl. VAT) of the planned pool. When the pools are large the charges are high and one has to remember about that while estimating the costs.

Supervision over correct course of the promotional or audiotex lottery is required by the Act on Games and Mutual Wagering. Avantis provides the supervision of the promotional or audiotex lottery by a person having proper certificate of competence issued by Ministry of Finance.
