Can an operator on a pre-July 2022 remote permit keep operating?

Six permit holders have no remote-gaming licence: Top Sport, Olympic Casino Group Baltija, Tete-a-tete kazino, Nese, Unigames and VSGA. Their permits were issued before 1 July 2022 and stay valid only until 1 July 2027. To continue, each must apply for the remote-gaming licence by 1 April 2027, and the old permit lapses once the licence is issued (Law XIV-580 art. 8(2), (4)). Betting advertising stays lawful until 31 Dec 2027.

Curaçao-licensed operators are considered illegal and are subject to ISP and payment blocking.

Alderney (AGCC) · Anjouan · Isle of Man (GSC)

An AGCC licence has no legal standing in Lithuania.

Bonus rules: welcome bonuses banned

Inducement ads: Banned

Lithuania bans encouraging participation in gambling in any form and by any means (Law on Gaming art. 10(19)), and its four permitted forms of advertising may carry no added information (art. 10(9-1)), so a bonus, free bet or free spin cannot be advertised. The fine is 3-5% of the previous year's gross gaming revenue, 8-10% for a repeat.

  • The ban on advertising bonuses and on encouraging play applies to every gambling product (art. 10(9-1), (19)).

Until 30 June 2025 the law listed trial games, promotions, discounts and gifts as banned ways to tempt you to play. Since 1 July 2025 the list is gone but the general ban on encouraging play stays. The law does not deal with a free bet or free spin given inside your own account without any advertising.

Penalties

3-5% of the previous year's gross gaming revenue (stakes minus winnings paid) for an advertising or inducement breach, 8-10% for a repeat within one year (art. 29-2).

Licence suspension is a documented risk for failure to comply with regulatory orders following a breach.

Advertising is banned except four forms (art. 10(9)): the operator's name or trademark on its office or venue building; its name, trademark and game types at the venue or on its own website; trade publications; and, until 31 December 2027, a betting operator's name or trademark with 'lažybos' in set time slots. From 1 January 2028 the betting exception ends (Law XIV-3132).

Advertising: limited

As of 30 October 2026, gambling advertising in Lithuania is banned except four forms (Law on Gaming art. 10(9)). Betting operators may still run their name or trademark with the word 'lažybos' in short time-slot spots on TV, radio and the internet, and publish sponsor notices, until 31 December 2027; from 1 January 2028 both exceptions end. Casino, slots and poker may show only the operator’s name, trademark and game types on its own buildings and website.

ChannelStatusVertical & Platform Split (2026)
Google Search AdsRestricted

The law allows buying search-engine positioning, but the ad itself may carry only what art. 10(9) allows (LPT FAQ): for betting operators until 31 December 2027, the name or trademark with 'lažybos' within the time-slot rules; for other products nothing beyond the operator's name. Google's own gambling ads policy applies on top.589

App Store PublishingLicensed operators only

Both Apple App Store AND Google Play WHITELIST Lithuania for ORGANIC real-money app publishing by LPT-licensed operators: apps can be listed and downloaded freely from each store, subject to age-gating and the LPT licence verification. The July 2025 advertising ban targets PAID promotion / store-ad placements, not organic publishing.1011

Google/Apple App Store AdsRestricted

Paid placements are internet advertising: only a betting operator's name or trademark with 'lažybos', within the time-slot and size limits, until 31 December 2027 (art. 10(9) point 4). No paid promotion of casino, slots or poker apps, and no bonus offers in any ad (art. 10(19)).5

Meta (FB/IG)Restricted

Social media is not named in the law. A betting operator's ad on the internet falls under the betting exception and its time-slot, pop-up and size limits until 31 December 2027; for any other gambling product there is no exception, and posts that encourage play are banned in any form (art. 10(9), (19)). Meta's own policy requires its prior written permission for real-money gambling ads.512

TV & RadioRestricted

Only betting advertising, until 31 December 2027: the operator's name or trademark with 'lažybos' in spots of at most 15 seconds, at most three an hour from 06:00 to 18:00 and two from 18:00 to 24:00, with the information message shown and read aloud (art. 10(9) point 4(a); DIE-484). No other gambling advertising; from 1 January 2028 the betting exception is repealed (XIV-3132).567

SponsorshipsRestricted

Only betting operators, and only as sponsor notices until 31 December 2027: the sponsor’s name or trademark and the sponsored party’s name, at the venue on stands, surfaces or sponsored persons’ clothing, in event announcements and programmes (art. 10(9-3)). Other gambling operators may not publicise sponsorship. From 1 January 2028 spreading information about any sponsorship is banned (XIV-3132).56

Digital OOHBanned

Banned: no billboard, transit or street advertising is among the four exceptions. The only outdoor form is the operator's name or trademark on its registered-office building or the building that houses a gambling venue (art. 10(9) point 1).5

How Lithuania enforces against unlicensed operators

The Lithuanian Gaming Control Authority (LPT) is one of the EU's most aggressive regulators regarding unlicensed operators. It uses ISP filtering and mandatory payment blocking, which has produced a high channelization rate to the licensed market.

  • The LPT's public list of illegal gambling operators held 2,017 internet domains at the end of 2025; 208 were added during 2025.
  • Since January 2025, all Lithuanian financial institutions are legally required to block transactions to and from operators on the LPT's blacklist.
  • The strict enforcement regime has resulted in an estimated channelization rate of 85-90% of players to locally licensed sites.

Enforcement cases in Lithuania: 4 recent

Material regulator actions, court rulings, and high-profile fines from 2016–2026 against operators serving Lithuania. Each entry includes the technical failure and a one-line read-across for other operators in the market.

  • May 2026

    Olympic Casino Group Baltija (Olympic Casino, Olybet)

    AMLFine €468,350

    After an unscheduled inspection, the LPT found the company did not hold enough information on a client's source of funds, assigned him a high risk level late, ran enhanced due diligence late and filed no suspicious-transaction report with the FNTT although several indicators were present. Decided on 7 May 2026; open to appeal.

    Read-across: Source-of-funds checks and timely risk scoring of high-spending players are the LPT's main AML inspection points.

  • March 2025

    Olympic Casino Group Baltija

    AMLFine of almost €8.4M

    The LPT's inspection found the company did not take enough steps to establish where one player's stakes came from (December 2016 to June 2021), monitored his transactions only formally and did not report them to the FNTT; five breaches of the anti-money-laundering and gambling laws. The damage was set at €6.4M, and the company's failure to cooperate was an aggravating circumstance.

    Read-across: This landmark fine signals a zero-tolerance approach to AML failings and raises the need for strong customer due diligence and transaction monitoring for all operators.

  • March 2025

    Unigames

    AdvertisingCJEU ruling (C-120/24)

    On a reference from the Supreme Administrative Court in Unigames' case against the LPT, the Court of Justice held on 13 March 2025 that a ban on encouraging remote gambling through information on an operator's website is a 'technical regulation' under Directive 2015/1535, and that an amendment widening it which was not notified to the European Commission cannot be enforced against operators.

    Read-across: A Lithuanian advertising rule that widened a notified ban without its own notification can be challenged; operators should check the TRIS notification of each change.

  • October 2024

    Top Sport

    OtherFine €15,000 (upheld on appeal)

    The LPT fined the company (order DIE-986, 29 December 2022) because the video recordings of a betting point's cash desk were unclear and recordings were not kept while an inspection was running (Law on Gaming art. 15(2), (3), (5)); the inspection followed a self-excluded player's complaint. The Supreme Administrative Court dismissed the appeal on 9 October 2024 (case eA-544-629/2024).

    Read-across: Venue video must show staff handling money clearly, and recordings must be kept beyond 180 days while a complaint or inspection is open.

  • Navigating the Near-Total Advertising Ban

    Advertising is banned except four forms (art. 10(9)): the operator's name or trademark on its own buildings, its name, trademark and game types at the venue or on its own website, trade publications, and betting operators' 'lažybos' spots in set slots until 31 December 2027. Nothing may be added to them, and encouraging play in any form, bonus offers included, is banned (art. 10(19)). The fine is 3-5% of the previous year's gross gaming revenue, 8-10% for a repeat within a year.

Operator myths vs reality in Lithuania

Common assumptions about gambling licensing that turn out to be wrong in practice.

  • Myth
    An MGA or Curaçao license is sufficient to operate in Lithuania.
    Reality

    Lithuania does not recognize any foreign licenses. Operating without a local license from the Gaming Control Authority is illegal and will result in being added to a national blacklist for ISP and payment blocking.

    Sources28

  • Myth
    We can enter the Lithuanian market as an online-only brand.
    Reality

    You can. The remote-gaming licence is its own category and needs no land-based venue: the place of remote gaming is where the services are provided (art. 12(6)). You need a Lithuanian AB or UAB (or a Lithuanian-seated EU/EEA branch), the licence, the remote-gaming permit and an LPT-approved regulation.

    Sources5

  • Myth
    The main compliance cost is the 22% GGR tax.
    Reality

    While the tax is significant, the one-time licensing fees are substantial, reaching €500,000 for a remote license alone and up to €1,000,000 for a full suite of licenses, in addition to high minimum share capital requirements.
