LNB licensed casinos
What the Lotería Nacional de Beneficencia (El Salvador) licence means for players, how to check it in the official register, and every casino in our database that holds it.
Short answer
El Salvador allows online casino games and sports betting on sites authorised by the Lotería Nacional de Beneficencia, the state body that both runs the national lottery and regulates gambling. The LNB can license internet games such as slots, card games, roulette, bingo and keno.
About the Lotería Nacional de Beneficencia (El Salvador)
It publishes a list of authorised operators with links to their websites, and licensed sites use a Salvadoran '.sv' address. A site without LNB authorisation is illegal even if run from abroad, although many such sites remain accessible. Some brands on the official list also show foreign licences, so players should confirm the LNB authorisation itself. There is no national self-exclusion register; each licence must explain how the operator keeps out barred persons. Players can file a complaint with the LNB using its official form. For an unpaid prize, the LNB decides within a set number of business days, and it can enforce the operator's financial guarantee if the operator still does not pay. Prize payers withhold income tax on winnings.

| How to check a licence | Check the LNB 'Operadores Autorizados' page, which lists authorised brands (13 on 22 October 2026, per gamblingmaps) with links to their sites; licensed sites use a .sv address. The page gives no licence numbers, and some listed brands also show foreign licences, so confirm the LNB authorisation itself. |
| Complaints / ADR | File the LNB's signed complaint form with a copy of your DUI and evidence (https://www.lnb.gob.sv/quejas-o-denuncias/). For an unpaid prize the LNB admits or rejects the claim within 20 business days; the operator then has 10 business days to pay or prove payment, after which the LNB starts to enforce the operator's guarantee (per gamblingmaps). |
| Player protection | No national self-exclusion register; each licence must describe how the operator keeps out barred persons. The law bars minors without stating an age; the LNB and licensed sites use 18. Prize payers withhold income tax (15% residents, 25% non-residents). Unlicensed foreign sites remain reachable. |
