Brief on Gambling and Sports Regulation in Angola:

Regulator — Instituto de Supervisão de Jogos (ISJ). Legislation was recently updated, clearly distinguishing between online and offline licenses. Angola is characterized by a fairly strict tax regime for operators (IEJ - Imposto Especial sobre o Jogo), but the market remains attractive due to the population's high purchasing power relative to neighbors.

Key Country News for 2025:

• ISJ reported record tax revenues from the online sector for Q1-Q2.
• Elephant Bet signed a major sponsorship deal with a leading Angolan football club.
• New responsible gambling requirements: mandatory deposit limits.
