Cocos (Keeling) Islands

Partly licensed

The Cocos (Keeling) Islands are an Australian external territory, so the Interactive Gambling Act 2001 applies and online casino and online poker are prohibited. A 2005 ordinance removed the basis for a local casino, as on Christmas Island. Offshore sites that use the .cc domain are not licensed there.
