Online casinos in Zambia
Legal status of online casinos in Zambia: legal, operators require a licence
Online casinos are legal in Zambia.
Even though the Zambian gambling legislation (the main piece of which is the 2007 Tourism and Hospitality Act2) does not specifically address online gambling digital casinos are legal in Zambia. The existing gambling laws extend to the digital space as well.
This means that the 1992 Casino Act1 regulates Zambia online casinos as well, which means online gambling companies have to acquire land-based casino licenses, in lieu of specific Zambian online casino permits (the details of the brick & mortar casino licensing system can be found below, in the next section).
It is actually surprising that Zambia has legalized online casinos, considering that the country only has an internet penetration rate of 28%3 (although, it is rapidly growing, it was only 6.5% in 20144).
UPDATE 2023: Online casinos are still not specifically regulated. However, they are expected to be, in the near future (no officially set date yet).
Zambian players can only play in licensed online casinos, placing bets on unlicensed casino websites is illegal.
Only domestic gambling companies can apply for a Zambia online casino licence. International casino companies need to set up a Zambian subsidiary first.
By scrolling below you can find a list of online casinos, which accept Zambian players.
Can tourists play online while visiting Zambia?
Yes, tourists, expats (or illegal migrants) can play freely online while they enjoy their stay in Zambia.
Online casino licensing and regulatory body of Zambia:
Online casino licences are not issued in Zambia.
Digital casino companies must acquire a brick mortar casino licence, which is issued by the Ministry of Tourism.
Additionally, depending on the types of games offered, a licence has to be acquired from one of the following government agencies:
- Ministry of Finance and National Planning;
- Ministry of Local Government and Rural Development;
- Betting Control and Licensing Board of Zambia (no website).
Sadly there is no information online about the online casino licencing process and requirements due to the chaotic gambling regulatory environment5.
UPDATE: You can find a little information here about the casino licence, including the licence fee, which is, as it turns out, K10,500 (K = Zambian Kwacha, approx. €532).
If you know anything more about the Zambia digital casino licences please leave a comment at the bottom of the page. Thank you.

Land-based casinos in Zambia
Legal status of casinos in Zambia: legal since 1992, operators require a licence
Casinos are legal in Zambia since 1992, according to the Casino Act1, and the 2007 Tourism and Hospitality Act2.
UPDATE 2023: There are 10 casinos currently in Zambia post-pandemic. There used to be 11 casinos prior to the coronavirus outbreak, but at least 1 casino has permanently closed due to the downturn in tourism. Further closures are expected.
/Comment: The number of tourists visiting Zambia has decreased significantly as a result of the global pandemic. 1 266 K tourists visited the country prior to the pandemic3. However, as a result of the various travel restrictions because of the novel coronavirus outbreak this number has fallen to 502 K per year./
In accordance with the Tourism Act, all Zambia casinos must obtain a gambling licence in order to operate legally (details of the casino licensing system can be found below).
Zambian casinos are aimed mainly at tourists rather than the locals. As a result, the Zambian casinos are generally located in upscale hotel resorts, where international travelers are likely to stay.
Most of these casino hotels are situated in the capital, Lusaka.
The largest Zambian casino is the Casino Marina Lusaka.
The biggest Zambian casino company is most likely Casino Marina International.
You can find all the currently operating brick and mortar casinos in the list below.
Can locals visit the casinos in Zambia?
Yes, locals can also visit the casinos in Zambia, not just tourists.
Casino licensing and regulatory body of Zambia:
Casino licences in Zambia are issued by the Ministry of Tourism (specifically the Tourism Enterprise Authorisation and Licensing Committee).
However, depending on exact types of games of chance that will be offered at the casino venue you have to acquire additional licences from the following government agencies as well4:
- Ministry of Finance and National Planning;
- Ministry of Local Government and Rural Development;
- Betting Control and Licensing Board of Zambia (no website);
There is very little information available online about the casino licencing process and requirements (you can find a little information here).
However, the casino licencing fee is known, and it is K10,500 (K = Zambian Kwacha, approx. €532).
UPDATE: You can read more about the licencing requirement here.
Casino licences are valid for one year, and may be renewed annually. The number of gaming tables and slot machines that may be placed in each casino is not set in the act itself, but is specified by each individual casino licence.
If you know anything more about the Zambia casino licences please leave a comment at the bottom of the page. Thank you.
Taxation of brick & mortar gambling establishments in Zambia:
According to the 2023 national budget the following are the land-cased casino tax rates in Zambia (payable in addition to the licensing fees above, UPDATE 2023: gambling tax rates were recently lowered by 10%, used to be 25%, see below)5:

![]() 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. |
