Ukraine Gambling Guide
| Summary: Gambling is legal in Ukraine since 2020 (officially Україна, the second largest country in Europe, a poorer Eastern European country, in a border conflict with Russia over the Crimean peninsula, not a member of the EU, has a population of 41.2 million).
Online gambling is legal in Ukraine since 2020. You can find a list of online gambling websites, which accept players from Ukraine by scrolling below, or click here to jump to that list:
UPDATE 2022: Due to the Ukraine – Russia war all gambling establishments are closed, and all gambling events are suspended until further notice. We hope for a swift resolution to the war, with as little loss in civilian and military lives as possible. |
1991: Ukraine is a very young country, it only exist as independent entity since 1991. Gambling was legal, ever since the foundation of Ukraine.
1991- 2009: The period prior to the gambling ban of 2009 is often described as the “golden age of gambling” in Ukraine. And indeed, the sector was thriving, but sadly for all the wrong reasons: lax regulations, widespread corruption and organized crime involvement.
This resulted in many scandals, but it culminated in the Dnipropetrovsk fire, which sadly claimed 10 lives (which means 10 people had to die before the government took action).
2009: In 2009 May, a fire broke out in a Metro Jack Pot slot hall in the eastern Ukrainian city of Dnipropetrovsk (nowadays called Dnipro). 9 were killed and 11 were seriously injured in the conflagration1.
/Comment: Since then, the death toll has risen to 102, one additional person died due complications and the majority of the injured have to live with permanent health consequences for the rest of their lives.
Also, even though the media calls this a “casino fire”, in actuality Metro Jack Pot was a slot hall, not a true casino./
As a result of the incident, all casinos, gambling halls, slot halls, poker clubs, and even night clubs were shut down in the city, until they could be properly checked for safety. Later that year, the moral outrage against corrupt and underregulated gambling establishments grew so large (it was politically charged, and there was a frenzied media witch hunt).
Eventually, by 2010 all gambling facilities were banned in the country3.
Even online gambling websites, which really had nothing to do with it, were thrown under the bus, ending the slowly growing Ukrainian internet gambling sector.
/Comment: This forced all players to visit unlicensed, illegally operating online gambling sites, which don’t pay any taxes.
This has repercussions even to this day, the newly relegalized Ukrainian online gambling sector has a hard time competing against the offshore unlicensed gambling platforms, and it’s hard to convince players to choose the often inferior, over-taxed local alternatives./
The whole reason the accident happened is because of corruption, and negligence. They bypassed fire safety regulations, never did mandatory checks and maintenance. They were violating almost every single fire safety regulation imaginable, and they just bribed inspectors to just sign the papers (the inspectors who signed it were jailed for life).
/Comment: They were far from the only business, which did this. In fact, this is common in Eastern Europe (where I live as well, in nearby Hungary, right next to Ukraine), a new disaster is just waiting to happen, nothing really changed, it’s still a common practice among small and medium sized companies./
Additionally, they were the perfect the scapegoat, and the disaster helped to bolster the fading popularity and approval of then president Viktor Yushchenko (never reelected as a president ever since).
The 2009 law, called “On Prohibition of Gambling Business in Ukraine”2, or in short, Gambling Ban Law, prohibited all gambling operations within the country, except the lottery, which is a state monopoly.
Many protested this decision, because Ukraine had a blossoming gambling sector, which provided employment for thousands, and despite the rampant tax evasion and offshore bank accounts, it generated significant tax revenues. Despite the opposition, the legislation was signed into law on 2009 June 23, by President Viktor Yushchenko (effective from 2010).
2011: However, because of a loophole in the original legislation, gambling providers could simply move their operations abroad and offer their services over the internet to Ukrainian players, which they of course they attempted. The law was amended in 2011 to address this flaw.
Since 2011 all forms of gambling (online and offline) were banned in Ukraine (except the state run lottery of course, and interestingly offline non-banking poker, which is in between gambling and a game of skill, that’s why it remained legal).
Before the ban, the gambling business had been thriving. According to information from Ukrainian Gaming Week, revenues increased from €246 million to €967 million between 2005 and 2008. The composition was the following:
- slot machines accounted for €705 million of this revenue;
- casinos for €37 million;
- lottery-like games (excluding the state-owned lottery) for €66 million;
- and betting companies for €158 million.
Operators were paying hundreds of millions of EUR in taxes and tens of millions in gambling permit fees.
2020: Relegalization of gambling Ukraine. This includes online gambling as well.
2022: Ukraine – Russia war, all gambling establishments are closed until further notice.
Update: After exactly 10 years, gambling in Ukraine was made legal again, in 2020, according to the 2020 Law no. 768-IX – About State Regulation of Activities for the Organization and Execution of Gambling4, which is the main piece of the Ukraine gambling legislation currently.
You can read about the reason of the 2009 gambling ban, the 2009 Dnipro fire in the Metro Jack Pot gambling establishment, in the history of gambling in Ukraine section above.
The lottery and non-banking poker were the main exceptions to the gambling ban (further details can be found below, sorted by gambling category).
There is a new gambling licensing system in place now, and the market is open to private investors, licenses can be acquired (see below at the gambling licencing section).
Online gambling is also legal in Ukraine since 2020, the new gambling legislation applies to digital games of chance and betting over the internet as well. Most online gambling are legal currently.
In between 2010-2020, Ukrainian players used unlicensed illegally operating online gambling websites exclusively, in lieu of local alternatives. And even to this day, as a direct result of this, placing bets with offshore illegally operating wagering websites is rampant. And it is seen as perfectly normal and acceptable by thee populace. However, this is illegal.
/Comment: Interestingly none of the unlicensed gambling websites frequented by players from Ukraine are actually available in their native Ukrainian language. However, many people speak Russian as second language in the country, and may of these websites are available in Russian (Russian and the Ukrainian language are very similar)./
Playing on unlicensed gambling websites is illegal, only online gambling sites with a valid Ukraine internet gambling and betting license can accept players legally since 2020 (you can see a list of these licensed gambling websites below).
The new 2020 gambling legislation, having learnt form the mistakes of the past, set up strict regulations so that gambling establishments are restricted to appropriate places only (you can see the details below in the licensing section). And this time they aim to actually enforce these regulations, unlike in the era prior to the ban.
UPDATE 2021: Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) started forcing internet service providers to block access to unlicensed gambling websites. However, players, who mistakenly place bets with unlicensed gambling operators don’t seem to be fined or prosecuted in any way for now.
You can find a list of online gambling websites, which accept players from Ukraine below.
Can tourists play online from Ukraine?
Yes, the laws discussed on this webpage only apply to Ukraine citizens, and does not apply to tourists. Tourists (expats, non-citizens, illegal migrants) can play online freely. However, unlicensed foreign gambling websites will be blocked by the internet service providers, and won’t be accessible, while you are using the Ukraine internet infrastructure.
Betting on blood sports in Ukraine
All forms of blood sports are considered animal cruelty, and are illegal in Ukraine. Betting on blood sports is also illegal.
Most people associate Ukraine with either Chernobyl or the recent conflict with Russia over Crimea (no fighting anymore, completely safe to visit). However, the country has much more to offer to tourists, watch the following travel video below to see:
/Comment: I can only recommend the country, or any of the countries surrounding the Black Sea. I especially love their resort towns near the sea during the Summer (that’s where most casinos are too btw., and in the big cities).
I live right next to the country, in neighboring Hungary, it’s very good value for money IMO. They are surprisingly cheap, considering what they can offer, significantly better than the more mainstream, overpriced destinations in Western Europe, which I don’t recommend at all, bad value for money.
If you have never been to Ukraine, give it a try, before they inevitably join the EU, which will send the prices soaring./
Ukraine gambling licenses
Gambling licenses are issued, overseen, and managed by the Ukrainian Gambling Council (Всеукраїнська Рада Гемблінгу). You have to contact them if you wish to set up any sort of gambling business in Ukraine. Their website is available in English as well, although not everything is translated into English.
The following gambling licenses are available since the the 2020 gambling relegalisation:
- land-based casino
- slot machine hall
- land-based and online betting (combined, includes sports betting and online sports betting)
- offline hippodrome pool betting, horse racing betting
- poker hall
- online casino gambling
- online poker
- lottery license (special, requires public concession, maximum 3 licenses)
- betting shop
If you apply for a casino licence you need the following two licences as well:
- gaming table license
- slot machine license
There is no limit on the number of casino licenses. However, casinos must be connected to five-star hotels in the capital city, Kiev, and four-star hotels in the countryside.
The license fee is $2 million for hotels with a capacity of more than 150 rooms, per year, and $1 million for hotels with a capacity of over 100 rooms but less than 150 rooms, per year, per licence.
Hotels with three stars can only operate slot machines. The license fee of such a slot parlour is $250,000 per year, and $100 per month for each slot machine. The facilities can have up to 50-250 machines with a single license.
/Comment: And hotels below 3 stars can not operate any sort of gambling establishment./
The online casino license fee is $1,150,000, for 5 years, for one website.
The license fee for bookmakers or online bookmakers is $ 1 million per year (per bookmaker, or per online sports betting website) plus $500 per month.
Three lottery licenses are also available, sold through an auction process, bidding for each will start at $500 000, annually. Lottery retailers can not have video lottery terminals and other electronic lottery devices or online lottery platforms.
An online poker license costs $170,000 per website, for 5 years.
These licence fees are pretty step, considering that these fees are in addition to the taxes (details can be found in the taxation section below).
The main problem with the high fees and taxation is that the online casinos will have to compete with the unlicensed online gambling sites, because gambling was banned for 10 years, and now everyone uses these offshore gambling websites. And these unlicensed gambling companies don’t pay any taxes in Ukraine, meaning, they will easily outcompete the local taxpaying gambling websites.
/Comment: Not to mention the employees’ wages will suffer because of this, it’s never the owners, rich investors or foreign big companies, which are affected by the taxes and high fees, it’s always the little guys, at the bottom./
The licensing requirements also reveal a strong political bias. They are a good example of how much the current leadership is against Russia, due to their recent conflict. They made it impossible for Russian companies, Russian people, and companies with Russian ties to acquire any kind of Ukrainian gambling licence.
/Comment: Instead, they are hoping that US gambling giants will invest in the country. But at least for now, they do not seem to be interested (they have much better investment opportunities). UPDATE 2022: No longer true, Hilton started opening casinos attached to their hotels in Kiev./

Ukraine gambling taxation
The applicable tax rates are set by the Tax Code of Ukraine5. The following are the gambling tax rates in Ukraine.
| Ukraine gambling taxation | ||
| Activity: | Tax rate: | Tax base: |
| general gambling tax | 18% | gross gambling revenue |
| slot machines | 10% | gross gambling revenue |
| lottery | 30% | gross gambling revenue |
| winnings tax | 1.5% | winnings of players |
This is on top of regular taxes (e.g: corporate tax, which is 18%). Gambling is VAT exempt.
The gambling tax rates are actually average, by European standards (high by international standards).
For the players, taxation of gambling winnings: All gambling winnings are taxable, 18% personal income tax rate applies.
This applies to everything: offline gambling establishments, domestic online platforms, if you are on a vacation and you win money, and even applies to unlicensed foreign online gambling websites (which are illegal to use).
However, according to online rumors this is not really enforced unless you happen to win a bigger amount, €10 000+.
/Comment: Unconfirmed, I only found forum posts, social media posts and similar, low quality sources, basically just rumors. But it’s also not surprising, official government agencies and law websites won’t talk about such things, obviously.
However, I recommend paying taxes on your winnings all the time, regardless of the amount, because that’s the law, and it’s better to sleep in peace at night. Back taxes and fines can quickly add up (up to 60% of your winnings or more) and 18% is not the end of the world./

Bingo in Ukraine
Bingo halls in Ukraine: legal since 2020, operators require a licence, but there are no standalone bingo halls
Online bingo in Ukraine: legal since 2020, operators require a licence, but no gambling license that would cover bingo
Bingo is legal in Ukraine, but it is not mentioned anywhere in the gambling legislation.
The legal status of it is not clear, there are some theories that it is considered a lottery game, but this is unconfirmed, no official source ever confirmed this.
Bingo in Ukraine, similarly to most of Eastern Europe, is virtually unknown. At this point, there aren’t any standalone bingo halls in the country (there never were any), and because there are no casinos yet, no one is organizing any bingo games currently (at least commercial bingo games).
Simply put, you can’t play bingo anywhere in Ukraine.
Most people in the country don’t even know what bingo is, therefore I don’t expect this situation to change anytime soon (bingo is similarly unknown in neighbouring Hungary, where you also can’t play bingo at all).
Online bingo is also legal.
Law no. 768-IX , a.k.a the 2020 Gambling Law, states that:
“Definition of gambling: Any game that requires the players to make a bet that enables them to receive a prize, and the result of which depends on chance partially or completely.“
/Comment: I translated this from Ukrainian with a help of automatic translation tools, this not an official translation./
This means that bingo is definitely gambling, and as such it is legal, with the proper license, and it can be conducted over the internet as well. However, none of the licenses available to private companies cover bingo.
At his point (to the best of my knowledge) it’s not possible to get any sort of online gambling license that would allow a private company to conduct online bingo.
And as with brick & mortar bingo , it’s also possible that it is considered a lottery-like game, which would make it a monopoly of the Ukrainian National Lottery.
Because of the uncertainties of the legal status and the lack of licensed digital bingo platforms, Ukrainian players can not play bingo online anywhere currently.
The bingo websites below accept players from Ukraine.
The following bingo websites have live bingo and accept players from Ukraine:
There is none, due to legal issues, it’s not possible to get a gambling licence in Ukraine that would authorize bingo. If you know of any please drop a link to it in the comments section I will investigate it,but it’s more than likely that it accepts players from Ukraine illegally. Thank you.
Poker in Ukraine
Poker halls in Ukraine: legal since 1991, operators require a licence
Online poker in Ukraine: legal since 2020, operators require a licence
Poker is legal in Ukraine, since 1991. It was one of the few types of games of chance that survived the 2009 gambling ban.
Non-banking poker* was not banned during 2009. However, banking poker** was banned, and it was only relegalized in 2020.
*non-banking poker definition: poker tournaments, poker cash games against other players
**banking poker definition: playing against the dealer dealer in a casino or a poker club
| Ukraine poker history: In 2009 poker was reclassified, the Ukrainian Justice Ministry removed poker from the list of legitimate sports and classified it as gambling. Prior to 2009 non-banking poker was considered a sport and a gambling licence was not required.
The reason for the reclassification was to make sure poker will not be used as a loophole to circumvent the 2009 gambling ban (comment: a very smart move). This was a real concern, considering the abundance of smaller gambling venues, freshly out of business, which were not properly monitored and regulated. However, the Ukrainian Poker Federation appealed the decision, and in 2013 the appeal court ruled that non-banking poker is indeed a sport. However, this only applies to poker poker played with chips, tokens or something similar, and not real money. /Comment: And these chips can not be exchanged for real money either, although, as we have seen in Japan, with pachinko, this system could be abused as well. This did not happen in Ukraine./ This is still the case today, and non-banking poker (often called sports poker in Ukraine) still does not require a gambling license. Organizer could also not charge a fee or collect a rake. These efforts were successful, because between 2009 and 2020 very few poker clubs operated, and they were monitored (their primarily were bars, pubs or similar, they were not actually standalone, real poker clubs). |
In 2020, things returned to normal, banking poker was legalized as well, although it is restricted to casinos only.
Video poker machines were legalized as well, these can be found in slot halls as well, not just in casinos.
Poker clubs can now charge a fee and collect a rake, but this has not led to a poker boom, and the number of Ukrainian poker clubs remains very low, around 10 (and none of them are real poker clubs actually, they are still primarily bars and pubs). The poker scene will be dominated by the newly built casinos, as soon as the currently underway casino project will be completed.
Online poker is legal as well since 2020 with an online casinos licence.
The best poker players in Ukraine are: Eugene Katchalov, Yevgeniy Timoshenko, Igor Yaroshevskyy.
The online poker sites below accept players from Ukraine.
The following online casino websites have poker sections and accept players from Ukraine:

Sports betting in Ukraine
Bookmakers, betting shops in Ukraine: legal since 2020, operators require a licence
Online sportsbooks in Ukraine: legal since 2020, operators require a licence
Sports betting is legal in Ukraine, since 2020.
The first attempt of the Ukrainian government to regulate sports betting dates back to 2003. However, the legislation that was passed then, called “On Gambling Games in Ukraine” ended up not including sports betting for some reason. However, the 2009 ban, didn1t forget to mention wagering, and betting on sports of any kind was banned.
In 2020 sports betting was relegalized, and it’s possible for private companies to acquire sports betting licences. However, because this a very recent phenomena, very few license have been issued, and there are barely any private bookmakers in Ukraine.
Virtual and fantasy sports betting are illegal in Ukraine, uniquely in Europe.
Online sports betting is also legal since 2020.
The following online sportsbooks below accept punters from Ukraine.

Lottery in Ukraine
Lottery in Ukraine: legal since 1991, operators require a licence, currently a monopoly of the Ukrainian National Lottery
Online lottery in Ukraine: legal, operators require a licence, currently a monopoly of the Ukrainian National Lottery
Lottery is legal in Ukraine, according to Law No. 5204-VI On the State Lotteries in Ukraine*.
The lottery was exempt from the 2009 gambling ban. Actually, between 2009 and 2020, the state-owned lottery had its golden age, and sales soared, because it was the only form of legal gambling remaining in the country.
Lottery is regulated separately from other forms of gambling and even the licensing system and procedures are unique (public auctions and concession, max 3 licenses).
For now, The Ukrainian National Lottery still has a monopoly on the lottery sector of the country, but in the future, they are planning on letting other lottery companies enter the market as well. That’s why the maximum number of lottery licenses is set to 3.
/Comment: If you are a lottery provider feel free to contact them about a lottery licence, perhaps they are just waiting for the right opportunity./
According to the Ukraine lottery law, Ukrainian players can not buy lottery tickets from foreign online lotteries, this is considered illegal.
However, Ukraine players can participate in foreign lottery draws, in person, as tourists visiting other countries, or online, from so called “lottery purchasing services” (lottery purchasing services are businesses, which purchase physical lottery tickets for you in a foreign country, if you make a purchase on their website, you can see an example of such a website below).
Apart from the Ukrainian National Lottery the following websites allow people from Ukraine to purchase lottery tickets online.
The following internet lottery sites allow players from Ukraine to purchase lottery tickets online:
There aren’t any.

Bitcoin gambling in Ukraine
Cryptocurrency wagering in Ukraine: not specifically regulated
UPDATE 2021: Cryptocurrencies are officially legal in Ukraine since 2021, according to Law No. 3637 On Virtual Assets*.
However, despite this, bitcoin gambling is not specifically regulated and therefore right now none of the land-based gambling establishments accept any of the alternative virtual currencies. Additionally, the Ukrainian National Lottery also does not accept bitcoin.
It’s likely that we will see more widespread use after the gambling legislation incorporates the recent developments of the Law on Virtual Assets.
You can only use your bitcoin, ethereum, ripple, litecoin on some of the foreign online gambling websites, which have acquired Ukraine gambling licences (they usually have multiple licenses). These digital gambling platforms work with payment processors (look for Skrill or Netteller among the payment options) that allow them to handle cryptocurrency deposits and withdrawals.
The bitcoin casinos below accept players from Ukraine.
The following online casino websites accept bitcoin, litecoin and ethereum, and accept players from Ukraine:
Free bitcoin giveaway
Free bitcoin giveaway, $0.1 to $ 200 every hour, real no deposit promotion, no wagering requirement bitcoin gambling and betting
One of the rare, genuine ways to actually get free bitcoins online. 100% legitimate, in operation for 10+ years, no deposit or registration required (we are using this site for 1+ years, payout guaranteed, not a scam).
You have to manually enter the bitcoin raffle every hour and you will be able to win anywhere between 0.00000009 BTC - 0.00878696 BTC + occasional special prizes.
You can realistically make around €200 per month if you roll every hour and participate in all the other promotions they have as well (wheel of fortune, lottery tickets etc..., all free).
/However, you have to manually spin every hour to get this amount, including at night, therefore, realistically, the amount you can expect will be less./
They also have many other ways to win bitcoin, or FUN tokens, including: online casino section, sports betting, betting on cryptocurrency prices, wheel of fortune, lottery etc...
No wagering, playthrough requirement, limitations.
Playthrough requirements, wagering limitations, terms and conditions and list of restricted countries
Because this is a crypto-only gambling website there are no restricted countries. Everyone over the age of 18 can play (or 24, depending on what is the legal online gambling age in your country).
Only bitcoin and FUN tokens are accepted. You have to deposit bitcoin to a specific bitcoin address and it will show up on your balance.
No wagering and playthrough limitations, requirements.
The only hidden fee is that if you win items, physical prizes, in those cases the shipping cost is not paid by them and you will required to pay for shipping (or you can opt to receive the equivalent of the prize in bitcoins if you don't want to pay for transportation).
UPDATE 2023: They also offer an annual 4- 5% interest rate on the FunFair (FUN) tokens you purchase with bitcoin (it's their own cryptocurrency).

 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. |
