Legal risk · Bulgaria

Bulgaria licenses online casinos locally

Online casinos need a Bulgarian licence, and the casinos listed here name foreign licences, so Bulgarian player protection does not cover them.

Short answer

Can players in Bulgaria use new online casinos?

Yes, at casinos licensed by the National Revenue Agency. Offshore casinos also accept Bulgarian players, but they hold no Bulgarian licence and can be blocked. Since 17 May 2024 Bulgarian law bans nearly all gambling advertising, so new brands reach players mostly through their own sites.

For you The advertising ban covers TV, radio, websites, print and public places, with narrow exceptions, such as the state lottery. A new casino promoting itself heavily to Bulgarian players is likely outside the licensed system.

Questions

Bulgaria: questions

Is online casino gambling legal in Bulgaria?

Yes, with a licence from the National Revenue Agency. The NRA can order unlicensed sites blocked. The casinos on this page name foreign licences.

Is gambling advertising banned in Bulgaria?

Almost entirely. Amendments published in State Gazette No. 42 of 14 May 2024 ban gambling ads on TV, radio, websites, in print and in public places, with narrow exceptions (law firm analysis).

Who regulates online casinos in Bulgaria?

The National Revenue Agency. It took over licensing from the State Commission on Gambling in 2020, keeps the register of licensed operators and imposes sanctions.

What should I check before joining a new casino that accepts players from Bulgaria?

Read the casino's terms on Bulgaria first, because a casino can change the countries it accepts. Then check the licence it names, its withdrawal limits and the wagering on the welcome offer. In Bulgaria, also look the brand up in the NRA register. Make a small first deposit and request a small withdrawal before you claim a bonus. Our review method lists the checks we run on every new brand.

Where can I get help with gambling in Bulgaria?

Gambling Therapy offers free, confidential support online in several languages. In Bulgaria, the National Revenue Agency keeps a register of people barred from gambling at their own request, and licensed operators must turn them away. Self-exclusion in a casino account only works at that casino. Our responsible gaming page explains the deposit and time limits you can set.

Responsible gaming

Play only if you are 18+ and it stays fun

These rules apply on every page of this site. A casino in its first year has less history to judge it by, so the limits matter more.

18+ only

Adults only, everywhere

You must be 18 or older, and older in some countries. A casino can ask for ID before your first withdrawal, and new casinos often do.

Responsible gaming
New brands

Start small with an unknown casino

Deposit an amount you would accept losing to a failed withdrawal, and request a small cash-out early to see how the casino handles it.
