Question 1

Is online gambling legal in Romania?

Accepted Answer

Yes, under a licensing regime. The ONJN issues licences to operators, which must maintain a presence in Romania, and it publishes the list of authorised sites on onjn.gov.ro. Sites without that licence are not authorised to target Romanian players.

Question 2

Are gambling winnings taxed in Romania?

Accepted Answer

Yes — Romania is one of the few European markets that taxes the player rather than only the operator. Withholding is applied at source on a progressive scale, so what reaches your account is already net of it.

Question 3

What age applies and in which currency do I play?

Accepted Answer

You must be 18 or older. Romanian-facing sites settle in Romanian leu (RON), though many international operators also accept euro accounts.

Question 4

How do I self-exclude in Romania?

Accepted Answer

The ONJN maintains a national self-exclusion register that licensed operators must check. You can also ask any individual site to close your account, but only the register covers every licensed operator at once.
