Is online gambling legal in Andorra?
Online gambling in Andorra sits in a legal grey area. Law 14/2024 provides for online gambling licences, but none have been issued, so any online casino or betting site you use is licensed abroad and the Consell Regulador Andorrà del Joc (CRAJ) does not protect players on it. Accessing offshore sites is not prosecuted.

Prominent operators in Andorra
If a site isn't on the regulator's licensee register, ask the regulator before you play: an unlisted site is usually not licensed here (a register can lag behind a new licence). An unlicensed site is outside the regulator's supervision, so you cannot complain to the regulator about it.
Red flags: how to spot an unlicensed site
- Verify the Operator in the Public Register
For any land-based gambling, confirm the operator is listed on the CRAJ's official register. As of 2026, only 'JOCS, S.A.' should be listed as a casino operator.
- Understand Online Sites are Not Locally Licensed
Recognize that any online casino or betting site you use is licensed abroad (e.g., in Malta or Curaçao), not by Andorra. The CRAJ does not protect players on these sites.
- Check for Responsible Gambling Tools
Even on offshore sites, legitimate operators will offer tools like deposit limits, session timers, and self-exclusion options. Avoid sites that lack these basic features.
- Confirm the Physical Address
The only legal casino is the Gran Casino Andorra, part of the Unnic complex in Andorra la Vella. Any other entity claiming to be a licensed Andorran casino is fraudulent.
- Know Your Tax Obligations
Remember that online gambling winnings are not tax-free. You are required to declare annual profits over €3,000 and pay a 10% capital gains tax.

Complaints: the operator first, then the CRAJ
- 1
1. Complain to the Operator
The first step is to raise the issue directly with the management of the Gran Casino Andorra through their established customer complaint procedure. This path only applies to the single licensed casino.
- 2
2. File a Complaint with the Regulator
If the issue is not resolved with the operator, a formal complaint can be filed with the Consell Regulador Andorrà del Joc (CRAJ). The CRAJ has the authority to investigate and mediate disputes related to its sole licensee.

3. Legal Action
If the regulatory complaint does not yield a satisfactory result, the final recourse is to pursue the matter through the Andorran court system.
Common myths about gambling in Andorra
- MythOnline gambling is illegal in Andorra.Reality
Online gambling exists in a legal grey area. The law provides for online gambling licences, but none have been issued. Accessing offshore sites is not prosecuted, and winnings are subject to a specific tax regime.
- MythAll gambling winnings are tax-free in Andorra.Reality
This is false. While Andorra is a low-tax country, winnings from online gambling are explicitly taxed as capital gains. You must pay a 10% tax on any annual profits that exceed the €3,000 exemption threshold.
- MythThe CRAJ will help me if I have a dispute with an online casino.Reality
The Consell Regulador Andorrà del Joc (CRAJ) only regulates the single, land-based Gran Casino Andorra. It has no jurisdiction over foreign-licensed websites. For disputes, you must rely on the operator's customer service and their foreign licensor (e.g., MGA).
What Andorra bets on most
Betting focuses on national pride events: the Andorra national football team's UEFA qualifiers and FC Andorra's matches in the Spanish league system. These are the highest-volume events in a small market.
