Slovenia
SILast updated Oct 17, 2026
Slovenia treats games of chance as an exclusive right of the state and permits them only under a licence or concession. The Ministry of Finance publishes authorised operators, while the Financial Administration can restrict access to illegal online sites. A foreign licence or Slovenian-language page is not enough. This guide explains checks, payments, complaints and safer play.

Online gambling in Slovenia
Games of chance may be organised only with the competent Slovenian licence or government concession. The Financial Administration warns that unlicensed online operators are increasingly targeted with sanctions and access restrictions, which can leave existing account funds inaccessible. Check legality before depositing.
Verify the operator
- Match the legal company and exact website with the Ministry’s authorised information.
- Confirm that the concession covers the intended online product.
- Avoid mirror sites, unofficial apps and payments to personal accounts.
- Read identity, bonus and withdrawal rules first.
Payments and complaints
Use a traceable method in your own name and keep statements, wagers and messages. If a site is blocked, consumer recovery may be difficult. Complain in writing to the operator and report illegal online gambling to the Financial Administration through its published channel. Contact the bank immediately if fraud is suspected.
Responsible gambling
Set fixed money and time limits, never borrow and do not chase losses. Use operator restrictions, exclusion and professional support when control weakens.
Information checked in September 2026. Confirm the current Slovenian concession before play.
