Oslo court upholds order requiring Trannel to stop offering gambling in Norway

Enforcement & compliance

Source: Lotteritilsynet (Norway)

Oslo District Court ruled in June 2022 that Norway’s state could enforce the order requiring Trannel to stop offering gambling through Unibet, Mariacasino, Storspiller and Bingo in Norway. The court rejected Trannel’s challenge to the order, and ordered the company to pay the state’s legal costs; the appeal deadline was one month, according to the Norwegian Gambling Authority.

The ruling confirms the enforcement order against Trannel’s gambling services in Norway, subject to the stated appeal deadline.
