In Portugal, to operate a land-based casino, operators must enter a public-tender procedure to be granted a concession. Considering the amounts of money involved and EU regulations, these tenders should be international. Usually, well before the termination of the concession contract, the Government should prepare and organize a new tender, which in complex concessions such as land-based casinos can often take 6 to 12 months to be completed.
