Legal status of online casinos in Germany: legal since 2021, operators require a licence
UPDATE 2021: Online casinos have been recently legalized in Germany, on a federal level with ISTG 2021 (GlüStV 2021)1.
This is a result of a long-standing feud between the EU vs. Germany vs. the state of Schleswig-Holstein.
You can read about the context and the details and the context of the current legal status, but if you are just an ordinary player all you need to know is that online casinos are legal, and you can paly online freely (a list of online casinos, which accept players from Germany can be found below).
In order to understand the somewhat confusing German system, we have to take a closer look at the German system of governance first:
The Federal Republic of Germany is made up of 16 federal states (Bundesländer). Each of them are autonomous to a large extent (although, the federal government is chipping away at this autonomy for a long time, especially when it comes to Bavaria). These Bundesländer are subject to decisions on various topics to the federal parliament (Bundesrat).
In theory, the states could legislate for themselves when it comes to online casino gambling prior to 2021 (and Schleswig-Holstein did just, and legalized online casinos, even before GlüStV 2021). However, online casinos are contentious topic, which are prone to abuse, and abusing it is exactly what Schleswig-Holstein did.
The Glücksspielstaatsvertrag, or interstate gambling treaty signed by 15 out of 16 states came into effect in 2008. The treaty banned most forms of online gambling, including online casinos in most of Germany. The only state that decided not to join the treaty was Schleswig-Holstein, which refused to sign it.
The real problem with autonomy regarding online gambling is that Schleswig-Holstein licensed internet gambling portals (23 such online casino licences were issued between 2008 and 2013) can accept players from all of Germany, not just from the rouge state.
Obviously this creates issues for the states, and the federal government, who didin’t want any private online casinos.
/Comment: Mostly because they didn’t want competition for their online lottery monopoly (and some states also wanted to monopolize online casino gambling, despite the objections of the EU). That’s the real reason, not the official version, which was that they only wanted to protect players from gambling addiction./
Even though Schleswig-Holstein was in the right, from a legal point of view, they were essentially bullied into signing the 2012 Interstate Treaty on Gambling2 in 2013. This ensured that they would not issue any further licenses. However, silently, behind the scenes, they extended all 23 online casino licenses they have issued up until that point (and these online casino could still accept players from all states). So as you can see, in true German fashion, nothing was solved, everything just got more complicated, and it left a bad taste in everyone’s mouth.
If this wasn’t enough, the EU got involved too, and as you can imagine it didn’t end well. It just made things more complicated, and made everything a lot worse.
Germany, EU laws and online casinos: Germany is an EU country, which means Article 56 TFEU3 and Article 8 of Directive 98/34/EC (EU gambling directives) apply. This states that other EU online gambling companies should be provided access to the German market, and they should be provided a way to obtain local gambling licenses (free trade of services and free competition within the Eurozone).
This was not the case prior to 2021 and the EU Top Court ruled in 2016, that Germany can not penalize or restrict unlicensed foreign operators, because they made it impossible for them to acquire licenses4.
This has led to the very unusual situation between 2016 and 2021, that even though online casinos were illegal in Germany, the government could not restrict the citizens from playing in foreign, unlicensed online casinos, which paid no taxes at all. Players were not prosecuted for playing in these offshore online casinos.
And this was the situation up until recently, a ‘clusterfuck’ is I believe the perfect word for this. However, with the 2021 legalization of online casinos the country is finally EU complaint, and every state can decide what to do with online casinos.
Most states are still in the process of ironing out the kinks of online casino licensing and taxation, because this is so recent. However, what is certain is that players can play freely online, and companies require a Germany online casino licence if they wish to accept players from Germany.
By scrolling below, you can find a list of online casinos, which accept German players.
Can tourists play online while visiting Germany?
Yes, tourist (or non-citizen expats, or illegal migrants) can play online freely while enjoying their stay in the country.
Online casino licensing and regulatory body of Germany:
Online gambling licensing in Germany is not done on a federal level. All states have their own licensing process and authority. You can see a breakdown by states in the table below.
Most of the ministries have German-only websites.
For now the states issue the online gambling license too, but it is planned that the The Joint Gambling Authority of the Federal States (Gemeinsame Glücksspielbehörde der Länder) will be established, and it will handle the online licensing for many of the states. It’s just a plan for now.
Keep in mind that the overwhelming majority of states does not yet issue online casino license (at the time of writing) because this is so recent. By clicking on the links you can check it for yourself.

Land-based casinos in Germany
Legal status of brick & mortar casinos in Germany: legal since 1720, operators require a licence
Brick & mortar casinos are legal in Germany, and have been for quite a while. The first German casino had opened in 1720 in Bad Ems (no longer in operation). This is typical for Germany, many of the spa towns (Bad means bath, spa) have casinos, and of course all of the larger cities.
Although there is a way for private companies to obtain casino licences, a good portion, about 40%, of brick and mortar casinos in Germany are operated by the state owned companies (e.g.: in Bavaria all of the casinos are owned by the state-owned Bavarian lottery company, Lotto Bayern) And many are state owned, but they are operated by subcontractors.
/Comment: Originally the German government wanted to monopolize the entire gambling sector, but this violated EU laws, and after years of litigation it was dismantled, but the Bundesländer managed to keep their local monopolies intact./
Germany actually has one of the most state owned casinos in Europe (and the entire German gambling sector is in similar shoes).
Currently there are about 100 licensed casinos in Germany.
Slot halls are also legal in Germany (although some states did ban them). However, the following federal limitations must be observed in each state:
-
Only one slot hall can be operated in any one building.
-
The Interstate Treaty (section 25(2)) demands a minimum distance between slot halls, the states determine what this minimum distance is in their Gambling Acts or Transposition Acts. These can range from 50 metres (Lower Saxony) to 500 metres (Bavaria).
-
In some states, slot halls must be located beyond the permitted minimum distance from schools, other child and youth institutions and/or addiction centres.
-
The maximum number of slot machines allowed in a slot hall is 12, only one machine per every 12 m2.
-
In restaurants and bars there is a maximum limit of two slot machines.
All 16 states allow and have casinos, and though there are some differences, all casinos are non-smoking (except for the designated area), and most of them are only open between noon and 3 am. Additionally, German casinos are usually posh places with dress codes and entrance fees.
Most of the 100 casinos in Germany are part of a complex, and are integrated into hotels, restaurants, bars, entertainment venues, and so called Kurhauses (Kurhaus is a German word for spa with medicinal bath).
Casinos are called Spielbank in German, and most of them have Spielbank written over the gate or the building, instead of casino.
You can find all the currently operating brick and mortar casinos in the list below.
Can locals visit the casinos in Germany?
Yes, both locals and tourists can play in the casinos.

Taxation of brick & mortar gambling establishments in Germany:
The gambling tax is determined by the Race Betting and Lottery Act (Rennwett- und Lotteriegesetz)1.
| Gambling taxation in Germany | |
| Gambling form: | Tax rate: |
| Casinos | 20% to 80% of the gross gaming revenue depending on the state |
| Slot machines outside of casinos | 12% to 20% based on the gross income generated from the amusement with prizes (AWPs) |

For the players, taxation of gambling winnings in Germany: not taxed

Actually, Marlene Dietrich called the casino “the world’s best casino”. This is currently the best rated casino in all of Germany, based on hundreds of online reviews.
Despite all the praise, the casino section itself is rather small by international standards (by German standards it is medium sized), and some of the gaming machines are very old.

Casino Wiesbaden
Spielbank Wiesbaden, address: Kurhausplatz 1, 65189 Wiesbaden
The casino in Wiesbaden is the oldest still operational casino in Germany. It opened in 1810, and it was the country second ever casino (the first one was Casino Bad Ems from 1720, but that is no longer in operation).
The Kurhaus is built in a neoclassical style, and the complex is a hotel and spa as well, with a restaurant and multiple bars.
/Comment: Kurhaus is a German word for spa with medicinal bath, the word directly translated means “a house of healing”, a reference to the scientifically-proven healing properties of natural thermal waters./
The facade of the main building (seen on the picture to the left) has a Latin inscription: “Aquis Mattiacis” , which means ‘the waters of the Mattiaci’. This refers to the Germanic tribe that once lived in that area and had legends of healing, magical waters. These fabled magical waters were likely the hot springs of Wiesbaden, which are still harnessed today for healing and wellness purposes.
The casino itself is an unremarkable medium sized casino (by German standards, small by international standards) with a beautifully decorated opulent interior space. It is a very posh place that is well known among the upper classes of the German society. Consequently, this is a very expensive place.
According to the casino:
“Every day, visitors to the gaming machines win over one million euros. On average 600 people play in the casino ever day.”
Games: around 190 gaming machines (slot machines, bingo machines and video poker machines), and around 11 tables (6 American Roulette wheels, 1 French roulette wheel, 4 blackjack) + 6 electronic roulette machines (with approximately 50 terminals in total)
They also have a poker room with 9 tables (Texas Hold’em and Omaha). Cash games are from 6 pm until shortly before 3 am, every day. Tournament schedule can be found here.

Bitcoin casinos in Germany
Legal status: not specifically regulated
Bitcoin is not illegal in Germany. In fact, the German Finance Ministry announced back in 2013 that bitcoin is now essentially a “unit of account” and can be used for the purpose of tax and trading in the country. However, it does not count as a legal tender as of now.
Despite this, Germany does not have any specific cryptocurrency gambling laws or regulations.
None of the land-based casinos accept any alternative digital currency and there are also no bitcoin casino websites licensed in Germany. However, some of the Schleswig-Holstein licensed online casinos do accept crypto, through various payment processors.

 That's me, Simon, thank you for visiting. 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! |
 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! By being on this site, you agree to terms and conditions, and privacy policy. You must be at least 18, and if you are a gambling addict, or a citizen of Hungary, please leave the site. |
Hi,
I recently travelled Germany from Frankfurt to Hamburg by train. From what I experienced connected to the Internet by phone there was NO options in regards to accessing any casino websites.
I tried hard, but any access whatsoever to a online casino site was totally inaccessible, I tried a not so known casino website for access, its IP address circumvents any legislation even here while gaming I was eventually cutoff and my guess is by German Police / secret police maybe.
You write that 1) it is legal since some date in 2021, and 2) about EU legislation that should provide free access to such operators. The thing is EU regulations are very weak compared to national laws. Especially when it comes to prohibitions and so forth.You should check this for an update…
Use a VPN, that should solve it.
I’m aware of this, and it is mentioned on this page that most of the bigger gambling websites are blocked. I will rewrite that section to emphasise that almost all gambling websites, which do not have a German online gambling licence are blocked despite EU, EEA laws to the contrary.
“The thing is EU regulations are very weak compared to national laws. ”
Exactly, it’s all just political posturing, professional lying, when push comes to shove they don’t fucking care about the EU laws, only about their own interests.
Thank you for your comment. I will make some changes next time I update this guide.
