Gambling in Ethiopia
The main governing body of gambling in Ethiopia is the National Lottery Administration. Since 1981, the National Lottery Administration has been tasked with regulating and controlling all forms of gambling in the country, with the authority to issue permits and collect licensing fees from gambling operators.
Despite the legality to gamble in Ethiopia, it is not as popular as it is in many neighboring countries, and not many gambling operators are running in the country.
Online Gambling in Ethiopia
Internet gambling may be more popular than land-based gambling in Ethiopia. It is legal for Ethiopians to gamble online, and there are many online gambling sites that accept players from Ethiopia that offer a wide range of gambling options.
