MALTA BETTING LICENCES

Basic requirements

The regulations require a presence in Malta in the form of a premises from which the betting office's operations are carried out.  Effectively, a call centre is established exclusively to receive bets together with a processing (back office) operation. 

Betting against computer generated games such as cyber-casinos on the Internet will not be given licences but the Internet may be used as a communication medium (e-mail) to the call centre.

The activities of ITCs are limited to those carried out outside Malta.  Thus Maltese residents are prohibited from placing bets with licensed companies. Bets can only be taken from non Maltese residents.
