Legal situation in Zimbabwe

Gambling in Zimbabwe is regulated by the Lotteries and Gaming Board, a statutory body established under the Lotteries and Gaming Act [Chapter 10:26]. Other statutes in the sector include the Betting and Totalizator Act [Chapter 10:02] and the Pools Control Act [Chapter 10:19]. The Board's website lists licence categories for casinos, lotteries and bookmakers, and its public operator list covers casinos, charity casinos, gaming houses and more than 200 bookmakers, every entry with a physical address. It contains no separate category for online casinos or online sportsbooks. The Board states that the legal gambling age is 18, including for online gambling, and expects regulated gambling websites to have policies against underage play.

Online casino games therefore have no clearly identified local licence, even though many residents gamble online, including on offshore betting sites. The Board itself has voiced concern about the growth of illegal online gambling and plans a real-time gaming management system to monitor operators and act against black-market activity. No offence aimed specifically at players who use offshore sites was found, and those players have no recourse to the Board if a foreign operator refuses to pay.

No operator is identified as licensed for online casino games in Zimbabwe, so online casino play is unregulated rather than expressly permitted.

Check any claimed Zimbabwean licence on the Lotteries and Gaming Board's operator list, which currently shows only land-based casinos, gaming houses and bookmakers. The legal gambling age is 18.
