Habbo BR becomes 18+!

Due to new legislation (the Digital Statute of the Child and Adolescent, Law No. 15,211, of September 17, 2025), we will be changing the minimum age to play to 18, a decision that enables us to meet strict legal requirements without being forced to compromise or restrict the core gameplay and user experience you love. To uphold this new standard and ensure full regulatory compliance, we will be adding mandatory age verification for users playing Habbo in Brazil. From March, all Brazilian residents accessing Habbo will need to be 18+ and have completed age verification before continuing to play.

Note that if you are a Brazilian resident, you will be asked to verify your age no matter which Habbo site you are logging into.

🧾 What you need to know

• We will be changing Habbo’s age rating in Brazil to 18+ to comply with the laws. You will not be able to access Habbo at all unless you verify you are over 18.

• When age verification is implemented, if you are based in Brazil, you will need to complete age verification before entering any Habbo hotel.

• We’re using the service k-ID to handle this verification process. They specialise in age assurance for online games and digital platforms. You will have the option to verify your age through a facial age estimation scan, AgeKey – a reusable, privacy-preserving digital age credential powered by OpenAge, or ID scan.

We will not store or even see details you provide during age verification – it’s all handled securely by k-ID. Details on how k-ID handle your data can be viewed through their privacy policy here: https://www.k-id.com/privacy-policy

What if I don’t complete verification?

If you choose not to verify, or you’re unable to complete the process, your account will remain inaccessible until verification is successful. Your account, items, and progress won’t be deleted, but access will be paused. An applicable restriction period may be defined at a later time.

What if I believe there has been a mistake in my age verification?

If you believe the result of your age verification is not accurate, you can always contact our Customer Support to appeal the result.

📅 When will this happen

We expect this change to take place before the legislation comes into effect on March 17th, 2026. Exact dates will be communicated later.
