On 16 June 2025, Italy's Customs and Monopolies Agency (AdM) issued the "Guidelines for Verification Bodies on the technical rules concerning the offer of online gaming services under the scope of Article 6, paragraph 1, letters a) to f), of Legislative Decree No. 41 of 25 March 2024".

Verification Bodies (so-called "Organismi di Verificazione" or "ODV" in short) are duly AdM-registered and accredited entities in charge of carrying out periodical checks on the AdM licensees to verify that they fully comply with the technical requirements.

The scope of the Guidelines is to provide operational and procedural recommendations to be followed by the ODVs in order to adequately verify that the systems conform to the requirements of the AdM Technical Rules underlying the online game offer.
