Slovakia’s Office for the Regulation of Gambling warned sports federations and associations on 10 November 2025 that promoting unlicensed gambling is prohibited. The authority said such promotion, including a foreign operator’s name or logo, could bring a fine of up to €250,000 and advised sports bodies to check partners’ individual licences before signing marketing agreements.
Sports organisations and gambling operators face enforcement risk if marketing promotes an operator without a Slovak individual licence.
