Online casinos in the Ivory Coast

Legal status of digital casinos in the Ivory Coast: legal since 2009, operators require a licence

 

Online casinos are legal in the Ivory Coast.

Digital casino gambling is not specifically regulated. However, the existing online gambling laws do extend to internet activity as well, due to amendments.

The main piece of the Ivorian gambling legislation is Decree No. 98-371 from 19981, it was updated in 2009 with Decree 2009-292, which legalized online casino gambling.

Ivorian players can only play on licensed casinos websites.

It is illegal to use unlicensed online casinos.

There are no domestic Ivorian online casino companies (if you know of any please leave comment with a URL at the bottom of the page, we couldn’t find any). However, international online casino companies do accept players from the Ivory Coast, through their local subsidiaries with Ivory Coast online gambling licences.

/Comment: The big online gambling companies only like to accept players from countries, where they are properly licensed and can legally accept players.

However, it does not make business sense to invest into creating a licensed subsidiary in a poorer, relatively unstable African country, with a very low internet penetration rate (36.3%)3

This is why so few international digital casinos accept players from the Ivory Coast.

But they rather not accept registrations from countries, where they are not licensed. They are very conscious of their reputation, and they have a lot to lose.

(It’s always the smaller companies, which accept players from as many countries as possible, often illegally, because that’s the only way they can stay afloat and grow in a saturated market. We do not work with such gambling companies.)/

UPDATE 2022: Be careful, most online gambling sites (90%+) say that online gambling is not regulated in the Ivory Coast.

This is clearly false.

The many unethical casino blogs only claim this to peddle unlicensed gambling websites, which accept players from Lesotho illegally.

Do not register a player account with such criminal scam sites and avoid online gambling blogs, which advertise unlicensed, unscrupulous digital gambling platforms for money. Do not trust them with sensitive personal information (e.g.: passwords, credit cards numbers) it is very likely that they will only find themselves in the hands of criminals (if you have already shared such info with them please change your passwords and credit cards as soon as possible).

Only choose licensed, safe, legally operating online gambling platforms.

By scrolling below you can find a list of online casinos, which accept Ivorian players.

 

Can tourists play online while visiting the Ivory Coast?

Yes, tourists, expats (or illegal migrants) can play online freely while enjoying their stay in the country.

 

Online casino licensing and regulatory body of the Ivory Coast:

Online casino licences are issued by the Ministry of Economy and Finance.

In 2019, Adama Voulibaly, the Minister of Economy and Finance of Ivory Coast, announced plans for the creation of a dedicated government authority for the regulation and licensing of games of chance. However, nothing seems to have happened in this regard since 2019, and it is unknown if this is still something the government is actually considering or they have abandoned this project.

The online casino licensing fees, requirements and process is not known, and there is no information about it on the government’s website. If you know anything about the Ivory Coast gambling licenses please leave a comment at the bottom of the webpage. Thank you.

Land-based casinos in the Ivory Coast

Legal status of casinos in the Ivory Coast: legal, operators require a licence

 

Casinos are legal in the Ivory Coast.

The main piece of casino gambling legislation is Decree No. 98-371 from 19981.

Even though the country has a population of 26.3 million, and it is the most visited country in Western Sub-Sharan Africa (around 2 million visitors per year prior to the coronavirus pandemic2), it only has one casino, namely: Casino Barrière l’Éléphant d’Or d’Abidjan.

The sole Ivory Coast casino is owned by the French casino company Groupe Lucien Barrière, which operates around 40 casinos in France.

There used to be another casino in the country at one point, the Hotel Ivoire Inter-Continental & Casino. However, it has closed for unknown reasons and it is no longer in operation (if you know why it closed please leave a comment, thank you).

All casino operators must obtain a licence from the Ministry of Economics and Finance (more info about the casino licensing procedure can be found below).

The gambling law also states that locals may not enter the casino, but this rule does not appear to be actively enforced, according to online reviews.

You can find all the currently operating brick and mortar casinos in the list below.

 

Can locals visit the casinos in the Ivory Coast?

No, officially locals can not enter Ivorian casinos. However, according to online rumors, this is not really enforced.

 

Casino licensing and regulatory body of the Ivory Coast:

Casino licensing  is the responsibility of the Ministry of Economy and Finance.

In 2019, Adama Voulibaly, the Minister of Economy and Finance of Ivory Coast, announced plans for the creation of a dedicated government authority for the regulation and licensing of games of chance. However, nothing seems to have happened in this regard since 2019, and it is unknown if this is still something the government is actually considering or they have abandoned this project.

The Ivory Coast casino tax rates are not known, if you know anything about them please leave a comment at the bottom of the page, thank you.

/Comment: It seems like the gaming venues pay a fixed licence fee instead of performance based taxation. However, these fixed fees are not known, and there are no high quality sources, which could confirm this, therefore this is just a rumor at this point, take it with a grain of salt./

 

For the players, taxation of casino winnings in the Ivory Coast: according to our interpretation of the Ivory Coast tax laws3, gambling winnings, regardless of the source, are not considered taxable income

Get featured on this website, here, just right under the taxation section. Advertise your services, get a link to your own website, or the accounting firm's website you work for, on a page that is visited by gamblers looking for help with their gambling winnings, and gambling companies looking for consultants and help with their projects.
And all this for free. Click on the drop down section if you are interested and want to get listed.

How to get featured

In order to get the free advertisement you must have a website (social media profile is not enough). Here is what you have to do:
  • send me a link to your website, or your employer's website
  • send me 1-2 sentences about you and/or your business etc.., something that describes the business, what you do, something that makes potential clients interested
  • send me one single picture of your company's logo, or a picture of your office, or one of your certificates, credentials which you are proud of etc... (but don't send a picture of yourself, for legal reasons I want to avoid uploading pictures of people)

The picture must be 150x150 pixels.
Contact me through the live chat, it's in the bottom right corner of the website, or in the comments section at the bottom of this page, with a link to the website you wish to advertise. If you qualify, I will give you my email address where we can discuss everything (I won't be putting my email address on the page, due to the extreme amount of spam I receive as it is).
In exchange: In order to appear for free on this website, you have to link back to this guide, from your website. It must be your website, your employer's website, a law blog or something similar. The link doesn't have to be in a prominent position, or on the homepage. It can be placed at the bottom of an unimportant page, where people don't see it, that's fine with me. And 1 sentence is enough, something like this: "We are featured on Simon's Gambling and Casino Blog, at <link here>."
That's all, if you are interested, get in touch. Looking forward to hearing from you.

List of all casinos in the Ivory Coast

This is a list of all casinos in the Ivory Coast, with address, opening hours, number and types of games, dress code, entrance fee, reviews and a video of each gambling establishment, if one is available.

 

1., Casino Barrière l'Éléphant d’Or d'Abidjan
This is a picture of the front entrance and lit neon sign of Casino Barrière l'Éléphant d’Or d'Abidjan within the Sofitel Hotel complex. The picture was taken at night. This is the only casino in the Republic of Côte d'Ivoire right now. This is the first and last casino on this list of all Ivorian casinos. You can read more about this gaming venue to the right of the picture: its' address, opening hours, dress code, entrance fee, and you can watch a video of the venue as well.

Casino Barrière l’Éléphant d’Or d’Abidjan

Casino Barrière l’Éléphant d’Or d’Abidjan, address: Boulevard Hassan II, Cocody, Lagunes District, Abidjan

The Golden Elephant Casino is the country’s only casino currently.

It is located in Abidjan, which is the biggest city and former capital of the country.

The casino venue is part of the Frech Groupe Lucien Barrière casino group, which primarily operates casinos in France and its overseas territories.

/Comment: Considering that the Ivory Coast used to be a French colony is its not surprising that the biggest French casino group has a presence here./

The casino is part of a large hotel complex (the Sofitel Hotel) with several bars and restaurants as well as a tennis court.

You can see the interior of the only Ivorian casino on the picture at the top of the page, or you can watch a video of the gaming venue below.

 

Games: around 84 gaming machines (slots and video poker, the brands and the quality of the machines is not known), and around 11 tables (blackjack, American Roulette, Three Card Poker, Stud Poker and Ultimate Poker) + an unknown number of electronic English Roulette machines

The casino also has a poker room (the Golden Elephant poker room) with 4 poker tables for cash games and tournaments (Omaha Poker and Texas Hold’em). However, sadly there is no information about them online and there is not poker schedule to be found on their official website.

 

Video of Casino Barrière l’Éléphant d’Or d’Abidjan:

 

 

Opening hours: 

Gaming machines:

  • Sunday to Thursday: from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m.
  • Friday and Saturday: from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 a.m.
  • Eve of public holidays: Closing at 4:00 a.m.

 

Table games:

  • Monday to Thursday: from 8:00 p.m. to 3:00 a.m.
  • Friday: 8 p.m. to 4 a.m.
  • Saturday & Sunday: Opening from 5:00 p.m.

 

UPDATE COVID-19: unknown, the official website does not have any information regarding this (comment: this is very unusual for the French casino group, if you click on the COVID-19 info page on the official website, you get a 404 error, I assume it’s a bug, not intentional, but they haven’t noticed or fixed it for quite some time now)

Dress code: smart casual, according to the official website:

“Whatever your style, you are always welcome in the Casinos Barrière if your outfit is correct (no tank top, shorts, swimsuit, etc.).”

Entrance fee: no entrance fee

Meta review analysis: the casino gets good reviews, on average 4/5, some reviews mention that locals are seemingly allowed to play as well, even though officially Ivorians should not be allowed to place bets (comment: this is also very unlike Groupe Lucien Barrière, I assume the French management is not aware of this happening, usually they are a stickler for the rules, very bureaucratic, rigid)

 

21+, ID, and passport for tourists, is needed to enter.

 

Other forms of online gambling in Cote Divoire

All the major forms of online gambling are legal in the Ivory Coast, since 2009.

However, the following forms of digital gambling are the monopoly of the National Lottery of Ivory Coast (LONACI):

  • online bingo
  • online lottery
  • online sports betting

 

You can learn more about the legal status of the various forms of offline and online gambling in Cote Divoire here.

 

Ivory Coast bitcoin casinos

Legal status: not regulated

 

Virtual currencies are not addressed by the legislation of the Ivory Coast.

This means they are not recognized as legitimate forms of currency, therefore none of the domestic gambling companies accept digital currencies (e.g.:bitcoin, litecoin, ethereum, ripple).

Ivorian players can only place bets using crypto coins on international gambling websites, many of which accept crypto coins through the various payment processors they work with.

The bitcoin casinos below accept players from the Ivory Coast.

Thank you for visiting:
This is a selfie of the author and owner of Simon's Casino Gambling Blog, me, Simon András Péter, a.k.a. by the internet pseudonym SimonTheSorcerer, owner of Simon's Online Marketing Kft. This is the homepage of my online casino gambling blog, you can see what's on the website, the links to all the different sections of the website.

That's me, Simon, thank you for visiting.

Don't worry, this is not an ad! ;) Just wanted to make sure to tell you that I'm glad you visited this gambling blog. I'm Simon, the only author and the man behind this blog (if you are interested, my unusual life story can be found on the homepage, under the "About me" dropdown section).
I'm an independent gambling blogger since 2012. In this sector dominated by huge media companies, casino operators and online marketing networks, who can easily spend $ millions on their online gambling blogs, it's not easy for an independent nobody like me to survive. It took me about 6 years, working my ass off, to even have a chance to be noticed by visitors like you. I'm lucky enough that for a few years now, I make enough money to be able to do this full time (before that, I had part-time jobs, ghost writing gigs, online marketing this and that).
Now I can finally do this full time, thanks to visitors like you! And it means a lot! If you are interested, please bookmark this site (no social media profiles, I no longer have any, but please feel free to share anything on any social media networks, if you still use them). I don't have any money to advertise, and if you have a personal blog, any social media profile, please mention my gambling blog and link back to it. This the only way for a small website like this to grow. Thank you!

Logo of Kiva.org. You can read about my non-profit activity right next to the picture.
Charity: As a way to help others, to give back, I sometimes donate to Kiva. If you click on the ads on the website, I make some money. And in a good month, if I make more than my expenses, I donate to people and projects on Kiva.
Kiva helps young entrepreneurs in developing countries, which is an issue close to my heart for obvious reasons. If you have the means, please sign up with the revolutionary non-profit company Kiva.org and help people lift themselves out of poverty, through hard-work, and an initial investment (non-profit loan). These non-profit loans encourage entrepreneurship and hard work instead of creating a dependent class that is afraid to get a job, or start a business (because if they did, they would no longer get support and free money, disincentivizing hard work and entrepreneurship). This is the right way to fight poverty in developing countries (or anywhere else really), and if this is something you are interested in, and if you would like to know more, or to help out, please check out Kiva.org here. Thank you!
