Anjouan (Comoros) licence.

AOFA / ALSI

High-risk verification case: establish official issuer and target-market recognition before supplier commitments.

What the regulator asks for

Year one cost

Official licensing fee and issuer authority not independently reconciled

The quoted €17k-€18k Year 1 and authorisation model are not verified from primary Comorian legislation and a regulator fee schedule. Treat this as a supplier illustration only; do not present it as an official market-wide licence price.

Timeline

Unverified; provider claim only

Multiple commercial and self-described regulator websites identify overlapping licensing or supervisory authorities. An independent source of binding Comorian law, formal regulator appointment and official fee schedule was not established. Do not rely on asserted 4-8 week timeframes.

Gaming tax

No verified general zero gaming/corporate tax exemption. Licensing authority, income/corporate taxation, player-market access and any foreign enforcement exposure require primary legal confirmation before budgeting.

Marketing climate

Light local rules. Restricted markets (geo-block list): Australia, Austria, France, Germany, Netherlands, Spain, UK, US, Comoros, all FATF-blacklisted countries.

The market

Anjouan remote gaming certificates are marketed by several organisations using inconsistent authority names and registers. These sources do not by themselves establish which agency has legal competence to issue a binding online gaming licence. Require independent Comorian legal evidence, fee basis and payment-provider confirmation.

How the application runs

AOFA/ALSI application; integrity, technical, financial dossier.

Ongoing compliance

AOFA AML and RG regulations. Self-exclusion mechanism.

What you can and cannot say

Light local rules; geo-restrictions enforced.

The honest read

What it means for your plan

Do not treat Anjouan as a verified cheap or fast casino launch route until independent counsel reconciles the statutory authority, legitimate licence verification, fees, tax obligations and every intended destination market.

Fees and requirements alone do not establish eligibility or readiness. Confirm current regulatory conditions with the authority and then plan product, payments and implementation.
