About the Oficiul Național pentru Jocuri de Noroc

Romania splits licences into classes. Class I licences go to operators that offer games directly to players, such as online casinos, sports betting and poker. Class II licences go to suppliers of equipment and services. Players can check an operator on the office's official website by opening the list of Class I licensees and comparing the legal name of the company that runs the site. Matching the brand alone is not enough, because some illegal sites copy well-known names. Remote operators must provide financial guarantees, use certified gaming systems and connect to the regulator's monitoring systems. The office keeps a blacklist of illegal sites and fines operators that break the law. Players who cannot resolve a problem with a licensed operator can contact the office or a consumer protection organisation for guidance.

Complaints / ADR	Contact the operator first; then ONJN or a consumer organisation such as InfoCons (phone 021 9615). No dedicated gambling ADR body verified.
Player protection	Licensed remote operators must provide financial guarantees, certify their gaming systems and connect to ONJN's monitoring systems. ONJN publishes lists of licensed operators and issues fines for breaches. A 2024 reorganisation created a directorate combining control, monitoring and anti-money-laundering.
