Anjouan

Anjouan, part of the Comoros Islands, issues low-cost annual gambling licences and has become a common destination for operators leaving Curacao. It is materially cheaper and faster to obtain than mainstream licences, and offers correspondingly limited player protection. Independent verification of Anjouan licences has proven difficult in practice, and the standing of the issuing bodies has been publicly questioned. Treat an Anjouan licence as a weak signal: check the operator’s payment history and complaint record rather than relying on the licence itself.
