The Dutch government legalised and regulated online sports betting through the Remote Gambling Act. First drafted in 2024, the Remote Gambling Act (KOA) went into effect on 1 October 2024, allowing players in the country to place legal sports bets and play casino games online.
Some prominent jurisdictions where online gambling is legal and regulated include the United Kingdom, Malta, Gibraltar, Isle of Man, and Alderney. These countries have established licensing authorities that oversee online gambling operators, ensuring consumer protection and fair play.
