The Czech Republic licenses online casinos locally

Online casinos need a Ministry of Finance licence to serve Czech players, and unlicensed sites are blocked. Play only at a casino that names a Czech licence. Check the law and your own risk before you play.

Short answer

Can players in the Czech Republic use new online casinos?

Yes, at casinos licensed by the Ministry of Finance. The Ministry keeps a list of blocked unlicensed sites, so offshore brands rarely accept Czech players. The casinos that do accept them on our list name a Czech licence.

Questions

Czech Republic: questions

Is online casino gambling legal in the Czech Republic?

Yes, with a Ministry of Finance licence (Zákon o hazardních hrách). Unlicensed sites are blocked.

When did the Czech Gambling Act come into force?

On 1 January 2017. It replaced the Lotteries Act of 1990 and opened online casino licences to private operators.

What is the gambling age in the Czech Republic?

18, for online and land-based gambling alike.

What should I check before joining a new casino that accepts players from the Czech Republic?

Read the casino's terms on the Czech Republic 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 the Czech Republic, also confirm the Czech licence. 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 the Czech Republic?

Gambling Therapy offers free, confidential support online in several languages. 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 young casino 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.

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.
