The market
Sri Lanka is a partially regulated market overseen by Department of Inland Revenue. Online gross gaming revenue is running at USD 310m for 2026, of which USD 50m is licensed. Roughly 19% of play sits with licensed operators.
Reform discussions ongoing for online framework 2026-27.
This is the measured profile. A full research write-up, with the licensing route, the advertising rules, the player limits and cited sources, is not written for Sri Lanka yet. The figures above come from the market dataset rather than from a per-country source review, so treat them as a screen rather than as a basis for a launch decision.
