Online casinos in Brazil and authorization status

The .bet.br records have a cutoff

The transparency page covers 85 administrative processes for operators authorized before the measure of 25 September 2026. A company, brand or domain in that historical documentation does not establish current permission to accept bets. The national list also does not replace the terms of any specific territorial authorization or court order.

The Ministry of Finance says the measure covers sports betting and online games within fixed-odds betting. Its guidance includes state and Federal District concessions and offers from overseas operators to people in Brazil. Other lottery categories authorized by law fall outside this specific restriction.

A winding-down deadline is not operating permission

SPA/MF Ordinance 3,005, published on 2 October 2026, deals with balance refunds, SIGAP reporting and remaining obligations of operators whose authorizations are to end. Its 15 December 2026 compliance deadline is not an extension of gambling permission.

The deadline to request a withdrawal directly from the platform was 11:59 p.m. on 5 October. The Ministry’s timetable scheduled bank refunds for 9 to 14 October. It assigns Caixa Econômica Federal a role when an operational problem prevented the bank from returning the funds.

Congress and the STF hearing

The Congress record read for this guide was awaiting installation of the committee, with deliberation scheduled from 25 September to 23 November 2026. Submitted amendments are proposals, not adopted changes.

The STF reported the close of its public hearing on 3 November 2026. That news report presents arguments and the rapporteur’s comments; it does not establish an operative order suspending the measure or authorizing a casino.

What an exact website check still needs

This reading has not established a later operative ruling changing the restriction or a current online-casino authorization joined to an exact domain. That does not prove that no individual ruling exists. Its operative wording, territorial and company/product scope, and current SPA guidance must be checked before confirming an address. A foreign licence alone does not establish permission in Brazil.
