Five fields to match
Capture the licence number, status, legal entity, authorised destination and complaint process from the regulator record. Then compare them with the current terms. A copied seal completes none of those checks.
What the foreign licence does not do
A valid offshore licence may describe supervision in its issuing jurisdiction. It does not authorise online casino supply in Australia and it does not give ACMA a payout-recovery role.
Conflict protocol
When two sources disagree, preserve both dates and return to the regulator record. Do not resolve the conflict by choosing the review with the highest score.
Reader checklist
- Match number and entity.
- Check current status and authorised destination.
- Record the complaint route.
- Do not convert foreign licensing into AU approval.
