African Gambling Regulators Directory
Official websites of gambling regulators and lottery bodies, with our coverage of each market.
Regulator notices are the primary source for most of what we report. This directory lists the official websites we use and links to our coverage of each market. Last checked 6 November 2026. Kenya's regulator is named in the Gambling Control Act, 2025. It is not complete: we add a body only after confirming it, and the list grows as we cover more countries. Always check the regulator's own site for the current licensing position, because rules and contact details change.
