Casinos in Belgium: 2026 guide

Regulated market: licences are issued by Belgian Gaming Commission (Kansspelcommissie). Operators holding one work legally; the rest accept players from abroad.

Regulation

Belgium is a strictly regulated market under the oversight of the Gaming Commission. Online casinos and betting are legal, but with an important feature: an online licence is tied to a land-based venue โ€” an operator must have a partnership with a licensed land-based casino, hall or betting shop. Strong protection measures apply: the national self-exclusion register EPIS, limits on bonuses and advertising, and a higher age requirement for casino games. Access to illegal sites is blocked via a blacklist. Land-based casinos are located in Brussels, Ostend, Namur and other cities. The currency is the euro; Bancontact, bank cards and transfers are popular. Players' winnings are generally untaxed. Players should choose operators from the Gaming Commission's official list.
