ÚRHH licensed casinos
What the Gambling Regulatory Authority (Úrad pre reguláciu hazardných hier) licence means for players, how to check it in the official register, and every casino in our database that holds it.
Short answer
The Gambling Regulatory Authority is Slovakia's state regulator for gambling under the Gambling Act No. 30/2019, which opened the online market to licensed domestic and EU operators. Online casino games and betting are legal only on websites licensed by the authority.
About the Gambling Regulatory Authority (Úrad pre reguláciu hazardných hier)
It publishes a downloadable list of legal gambling websites, and players should check that a site's address appears on it. Unlicensed sites must be blocked, and internet and mobile providers that fail to block them can be fined heavily. The authority also runs the Register of Excluded Persons. Licensed operators must check this register, which includes people who asked to be excluded as well as certain groups barred by law. A free information line is available for questions about the register. Players must be at least 18. Problems with a licensed site should first be raised with the operator. The authority's own complaints page deals with complaints about public administration, so players with an unresolved dispute should contact the authority directly as the supervisor of licensed operators.

| How to check a licence | Download the list of legal websites of internet gambling operators ('Zoznam legálnych webových sídiel', XLSX) from the ÚRHH 'Legálne webové stránky' page; the version found was updated on 14 January 2026. ÚRHH also keeps a central register of gambling operators. |
| Complaints / ADR | Complain to the licensed operator first. ÚRHH's own complaints page covers complaints under the Act on Complaints (No. 9/2010) about public administration, not player disputes. Secondary sources say players can escalate an unresolved dispute to ÚRHH as the supervisory body; a dedicated ADR body was not verified. |
| Player protection | ÚRHH administers the Register of Excluded Persons (RVO) under § 33(2) of the Gambling Act No. 30/2019; it covers people who asked to be excluded and certain other groups, such as persons with court-ordered child maintenance obligations.
