Questions

Saudi Arabia: questions

Is online gambling legal in Saudi Arabia?

No. Saudi Arabia prohibits all gambling and licenses none. The casinos on this page are offshore.

What are the penalties for gambling in Saudi Arabia?

Gambling can lead to prison and fines. Penalties are applied by the courts, and we could not confirm a published schedule, so the exact range is unclear.

Why do offshore casinos accept players from Saudi Arabia?

They choose their own accepted countries under licences from other jurisdictions. Their licence gives you no protection in Saudi Arabia.

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

Read the casino's terms on Saudi Arabia 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. Given the law, the safest choice is not to play. 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 Saudi Arabia?

Gambling Therapy offers free, confidential support online in several languages. Saudi Arabia has no national self-exclusion register. 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.
