Austria’s coalition works on gambling bill ahead of planned 2026 start
Austria’s governing coalition is working on a new gambling bill, with a draft expected soon and the law planned to take effect in mid-2026, according to the report. The proposed changes would accompany a reallocation of gambling concessions; Win2Day’s licence expires in 2027. The report said the government also intends to improve player protection.
Operators and concession applicants in Austria face potential legislative changes before the planned licence reallocation.
