Online Gambling in Tanzania

Online gambling is also legal in Tanzania, and has been for many years. In 1999, an amendment was made to the Gaming Control Act which legalized online gambling in the country, while at the same time providing a system allowing the government to offer licensing for fixed-odds wagering, sports betting and lotteries. Tanzanian internet gambling websites have since emerged, and cater mostly to local players.
