Page updated
EM Group is a multi-entity brand spanning companies in Curaçao, Malta, Cyprus, and the Netherlands. iGaming Compliance Netherlands B.V. is the site data controller, but it is not automatically the company providing every service. Each order must name the contractor and locally authorized entity for the chosen jurisdiction.

EM Group iGaming Licensing and Corporate Support
Multi ProductFirst PartyAvailability: Standalone and BundledEM Group is a multi-entity corporate-services brand with a current iGaming licensing practice covering business-model assessment, entity structuring, application documents, regulator communication, and post-license compliance support.
Licensing, corporate administration, and compliance are separate service lines that can be combined. That can reduce handoffs, but several EM entities participate, and the site data controller is not necessarily the company that will form, direct, administer, or advise the applicant.
Emoore N.V. held supervised Curaçao trust-service status at December 31, 2024, alongside EMS Management Services N.V. and named natural persons. Its 2026 status and equivalent authorization in other markets are unresolved. Trust-service supervision does not confer gambling-license authority or establish application success.
Products
Integration: The engagement should name the EM legal entity, applicant and licensee, regulator, license class, products, target markets, ownership and key-person population, local directors or representatives, external lawyers and auditors, regulator portal authority, document owners, filing and translation responsibility, assumptions, official and professional fees, milestones, dependencies, data roles, subprocessors, retention, conflicts, rejection and remediation scope, renewal duties, and exit handover. Contracting entity, fees, schedule, approval probability, and legal-advice model remain jurisdiction-specific.

What to verify in procurement
- ! EM Group is not one legal entity. The order, invoice, data terms, professional responsibility, and local authorization must all point to the actual company performing each workstream.
- ! Curaçao trust-service status is current only through December 31, 2024. Obtain a newer company extract and regulator or central-bank status before relying on that authorization.
- ! Application timelines and fees are estimates, regulator relationships confer no preferential treatment, and approval cannot be guaranteed.
- ! Corporate administration can create director, joint-controller, bank-signatory, or ongoing dependency. Define authority, liability, records access, replacement, and exit before incorporation.
