Bosnia & Herzegovina

State or provincial

The two entities set their own rules. Republika Srpska licenses online casino and betting under its Law on Games of Chance, while the Federation's older law has no clear online framework and lets land-based licensees offer some games online. Online play is prohibited in Brčko District, and Lutrija BiH runs the state lottery.
