Anjouan License Becomes Popular Choice For 2026 Operators

Insights provided by Slotegrator highlight how the Anjouan license has turned into one of the most appealing entry points for operators preparing to launch in 2026. Slotegrator also notes that a promotional offer available until the end of 2025 allows new operators to pair the license with a ready turnkey casino platform, helping them get to market much faster.

Good to Know

• Anjouan approval often completed in 2 to 4 weeks
• No GGR, VAT or corporate tax applied to license holders
• Annual costs range from €17,000 to €25,000

Why Anjouan Stands Out For New iGaming Operators

The region has grown into a reliable hub for online gambling licensing over the last few years. Hundreds of operators secure approval annually, driven by predictable expenses, regulatory clarity and a simple entry process that appeals to early stage businesses trying to control risk.

For companies entering the market, the financial structure is one of the strongest selling points. With no GGR, VAT or corporate tax, resources can flow directly into product development, player retention and marketing. Stability matters too, and annual operating expenses between €17,000 and €25,000 help brands plan budgets without worrying about sudden changes in regulatory fees.

Fast Approval And Wide Coverage Across iGaming Verticals

New operators value speed, and Anjouan provides one of the quickest approval timelines available. Most applicants receive a green light within 2 to 4 weeks, giving them a far shorter launch cycle than many established jurisdictions.

The license extends across all core iGaming categories. Casino games, sports betting, live dealer content, poker, lotteries and additional verticals fall under a single approval. This helps young operators avoid slow multi license processes and reduces administrative overhead.

International Recognition With A Crypto Friendly Environment

Anjouan operates within a framework recognized through its membership in the World Trade Organization, a factor that supports long term credibility for operators building global brands. Its approach to digital assets offers additional flexibility for operators targeting regions with restricted or inconsistent banking access. At the same time, strict AML and CFT measures ensure transparent processes and a safe operating environment.

Slotegrator lawyer Petr Stehlik highlighted the license appeal for new entrants:

“The Anjouan license costs less than many comparable solutions, making it one of the most affordable options out there, which is perfect for most online gambling businesses, and especially for startups. For many of our clients, it has become a strategic launchpad rather than just a licensing option.”
