Playing Cards Act

The Playing Cards Act is a law in Thailand that prohibits individuals from owning more than 120 playing cards that have not been registered by the Excise Department.[1] The current law was passed in 1943 superseding previous acts.[1] The Playing Cards Acts are part of Thailand's strict anti-gambling laws dating back to 1935.[2]
