With the arrival of a new government and tenders for online casino licenses, Austria is ready to end its long-standing gambling monopoly and open the market to private operators. This will allow licensing of online casinos, including slots and table games.
Legal disputes with Maltese licensed operators are also expected to be resolved. Since the license for Austrian casinos expires in 2027, the tender process will begin as early as 2025. Experts consider this as the main opportunity to open the Austrian online gambling market.
Simon Priglinger-Simader from the Austrian Betting Association noted that the key moment for reform and moving away from monopoly is coming.
