The Indian Gaming Regulatory Act requires that each tribe enact a tribal gaming ordinance that is approved by the National Indian Gaming Commission Chair before opening a gaming operation. The IGRA, 25 U.S.C. § 2710, and NIGC regulations, 25 C.F.R. part 522, require certain provisions to appear in the ordinance. Additional guidance is provided in NIGC Bulletin 2018-1.” We have an updated model gaming ordinance here.
