Legal risk · Netherlands

Only KSA-licensed casinos are legal

An offshore casino that takes Dutch players has no Dutch licence. It is outside Cruks and the KSA's rules, and the KSA cannot help you if a withdrawal is refused.

1 Apr 2021

Short answer

Can players in the Netherlands use new online casinos?

Legally, only at casinos licensed by the KSA, which check every player against the Cruks self-exclusion register. Offshore casinos sit outside that system, so a Dutch player there has no local protection.

In depth

How Dutch licensing works

  • Licensed operators must check each player against Cruks, the national self-exclusion register, before play.
  • The minimum age for online gambling is 18.
  • Advertising for gambling is restricted.
  • Fines for unlicensed operators run up to 10% of the previous year's turnover.

Playing offshore from the Netherlands

Offshore casinos that accept Dutch players operate without a KSA licence. Payouts, disputes and self-exclusion all depend on the casino's own goodwill, so a KSA-licensed site is the safer choice.

Questions

New casinos in the Netherlands: questions

Is online casino play legal in the Netherlands?

Yes, at operators licensed by the Kansspelautoriteit. The licensed market opened on 1 October 2021.

What is Cruks?

The Dutch national self-exclusion register. Licensed operators must check every player against it.

What is the minimum age?

Responsible gaming

Play only if you are 18+ and it stays fun

These rules apply on every page of this site. A young casino has less history to judge it by, so the limits matter more.

18+ only

Adults only, everywhere

You must be 18 or older, and older in some countries. A casino can ask for ID before your first withdrawal, and new casinos often do.

New brands

Start small with an unknown casino

Deposit an amount you would accept losing to a failed withdrawal, and request a small cash-out early to see how the casino handles it.
