What is Self Exclusion?
Self-Exclusion is a process that allows a person to request to be banned from all Indian Gaming Facilities within the State of Arizona and to be prohibited from collecting any winnings, recovering any losses, and the use of any of the services or privileges of the facility. You can choose either a one year, five year, or ten year exclusion. This exclusion is irrevocable and cannot be altered or rescinded for any reason during the time period elected on the form.

“On the casino side, the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board has issued 35 fines for a total of $542,000 for casinos not properly identifying a self-excused individual entering a casino or sending promotion to self-excluded individuals.” That’s roughly $15,500 per trespass, so it’s definitely in casinos’ financial interest to be vigilant. Is it permanent? And is banning based on some max winnings threshold at each particular casino, or is it based on the winnings at one sitting? I just won $4K at Vivky and Vance casino, and got banned. If I reload and quit after winning say.$3K, can I come back another day and win $3K again, or will I get banned as soon as I hit that $4K total mark?) I ask because this sure is an easier.
How do I exclude myself?
There are a number of ways you can go about excluding yourself. You can download the exclusion form found on this site, fill it out, have it notarized and mail it to the Department of Gaming along with a current photo of yourself. Please note: The self-exclusion will not be processed without proper notarization and a current photo. The photo may be submitted electronically via email; however, the original, notarized self-exclusion form must be mailed or delivered to this office.
You may also come to the office to complete the entire self-exclusion process which includes meeting with the self-exclusion administrator who will discuss the program, notarize the form and take your photo as well as give you additional resources for problem gambling. Appointments for self-excluding in our office are Monday, Wednesday and Thursday 8 a.m. - 3 p.m. It is recommended to call in advance to confirm the Self-Exclusion Administrator will be available.
