Certification, Licensing, and Special Requirements

Certification or Licensing

Dealers must be licensed in the state in which they work. This license is generally issued by a regulatory agency such as the state's casino control board or commission. For specific licensing requirements, visit your state’s gaming commission Web site.

Other Requirements

Employers generally conduct background checks of prospective dealers, require that they have no criminal record, and that they pass a drug test. Dealers must also meet the position's age requirement set by the state.
