Poland and online gambling

Is offline and online gambling legal in Poland?
Offline and online gambling is legal in Poland. In 2009 the Polish government introduced the ‘2009 Act on Gambling’, which brought a couple of amendments that wanted to bring it in line with the principles of the European countries. The country is part of the European Union and is one of the European countries with a strict government monopoly when it comes to gambling. There are some exceptions though. For example, gambling with offshore operators is permitted but unregulated.
Apply for a sports betting license
The Polish government introduced new online gambling regulations in April 2007. Since then, international operators have to apply for a sports betting license. Every other (online) casino game is legal, although there is a designated gambling monopoly.
