Armenia

Licensed

The Law on the Regulation of Gaming Activities took effect on 1 January 2025 and licenses online casino, betting and land-based casinos. Players must be 21 or older, online lotteries are not allowed, and land casinos are limited to Tsakhkadzor, Jermuk, Sevan, Meghri and certain free economic zones. Licensing moved from the Ministry of Finance to the Ministry of Economy, and the State Revenue Committee supervises operators.
