Gaming & Gambling

Multi-Jurisdictional Expertise 

Gaming businesses rarely operate within a single market. Our team provides coordinated legal support across multiple regulated jurisdictions, helping clients align regulatory compliance with their commercial objectives. 

We advise operators and suppliers on licensing, regulatory and operational matters across established and emerging gaming markets. This includes supporting businesses throughout gaming licence and gambling licence application processes, advising on local regulatory requirements, and assisting with ongoing compliance obligations following authorisation. 

Through our offices in Malta, Romania, Italy and the UAE and our network across other international gaming hubs, we help clients navigate multiple licensing regimes through a single coordinated legal strategy. We also advise on the tax implications affecting operators, including gaming and betting VAT considerations, working closely with our tax specialists to deliver integrated regulatory and fiscal advice.
