Question 1

Is online gambling legal in Denmark?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Danish Gambling Act opened the market on 1 January 2012, and Spillemyndigheden licenses and supervises operators. Since 2025, B2B suppliers must be licensed too, which extends oversight to the game studios behind the lobby.

Question 2

What is ROFUS?

Accepted Answer

ROFUS is the national self-exclusion register. One registration blocks you from every Danish-licensed site — for 24 hours, one month, six months or permanently. Operators check it via MitID at sign-up, so it cannot be sidestepped by opening a new account.

Question 3

Are gambling winnings taxed in Denmark?

Accepted Answer

No, provided the operator holds a Danish or other EU/EEA licence. Winnings from operators outside that scope are taxable income, which is a practical reason to stay with licensed sites.

Question 4

What age and currency apply at Danish casinos?

Accepted Answer

You must be at least 18, and Danish sites deposit in Danish Kroner (DKK). Danish rules require you to set a deposit limit before your first wager, not afterwards.
