The Systemic-Electronic Form and Its Permit
In Georgian law, an online casino is officially the organization in a systemic-electronic form of casino games — the conduct of games using the internet, telephone and/or specially equipped electronic means, in compliance with the requirements established by law. This activity requires a permit and is singled out as a separate category by the eleventh article of the law.
An online-casino operator that also handles virtual assets for customers — exchange, transfer or custody — enters a separate regime: our crypto licence in Georgia guide explains the National Bank registration it requires.
An important property of the permit is its dual nature: it may be issued both on the basis of a permit for organizing a casino and without it. The choice of basis means a different permit fee and term — a permit issued on a basis remains in force for the remaining term of that basis. Moreover, a single permit allows the organization of no more than 2 websites under internet domain names: where two domains exist, one is used for players holding Georgian citizenship and the other for players holding foreign citizenship.
