GRAI opens consultation on proposed Irish gambling licence rules
Ireland’s Gambling Regulatory Authority opened a public consultation on proposed gambling licensing regulations on 7 April, according to a report. The consultation runs until 5 May and covers application fees, licence duration and conditions for betting and gaming licences. The GRAI said applications were provisionally scheduled to open for retail and online betting in December 2025, with online gaming applications expected towards the end of the first quarter of 2026; the timetable may change.
Operators and suppliers can comment on proposed licence fees, terms and conditions before Ireland’s new licensing system is implemented.
