The Higher Administrative Court of Saxony-Anhalt dismissed an appeal on 9 August against an interim ruling that had upheld a GGL prohibition order against an online gambling provider, the GGL said. The court also confirmed that the permit requirement under the 2021 State Treaty on Gambling is compatible with EU law.
The court’s ruling supports enforcement of Germany’s online gambling permit requirement against providers without permits.
