Mauritius’s GRA separates premises casinos, remote betting and interactive gambling. Its published Act consolidated to 16 June 2026 also contains a separate digital-gaming licence requirement for casino operators.
Different products need different evidence
A casino-premises licence or remote horse-racing permission does not establish permission for a consumer online-casino domain. Section 16A requires a digital-gaming licence; it is not itself a named licence award.
What the Finance Act changed
Section 6 of the Finance Act 2026 distinguishes B2C interactive gambling for end users from B2B supplies to operators. The B2C definition includes online casinos and sportsbooks. The Act also changes how the Board approves digital games under section 16A and brings digital casino games into the rules and game lists under section 19.
Check which provisions operate
The June 2026 consolidation marks Part XVIII as not in operation and annotates section 91A separately with a date in 2023. The August Act amends section 91 itself. These sources do not establish that all of Part XVIII is operational or that the Authority has issued a licence for a specific website.
