Regulation

Czechia has had a regulated market since 2017, when the Gambling Act took effect. Online casinos, slots, poker and betting are legal for operators licensed by the Ministry of Finance; the regulator maintains lists of legal and blocked sites. A nationwide register of self-excluded persons is in place, and illegal domains and payments to them are blocked. Land-based casinos are widespread, especially in areas bordering Germany and Austria. The currency is the Czech koruna; bank cards, transfers and e-wallets are popular. Players' winnings at licensed operators are generally exempt from income tax, while operators pay gambling tax. Players should choose sites from the Ministry of Finance's official list.
