Guessing games



Guessing games refer to non-money lotteries where participants have the chance to win articles or vouchers or coupons exchangeable for articles or services on the basis of a guess concerning the subject of the game, but excluding sporting or other competitions.

Written notification must be made of a guessing game at least five days before it starts. The duration of a guessing game may be a maximum of six months.

A notification about a guessing game, which is to take place in the area of a certain police department, should be made to the police department of that area. A notification about a guessing game, which is to take place in an area partially outside the area under a certain police department's authority, should be made to the National Police Board.

Notification of a guessing game must contain

  • a completed guessing game notification form
  • a completed form for rendering the accounts of a guessing game
  • a description of how the proceeds are going to be used
  • a completed guessing game list of winners
  • a list of lottery tickets sold and prizes won on them
  • a list of prizes not claimed
