Not necessarily; and this is what I meant by vague (though yes, complicated is probably a better term). http://www.gamblingcommission.gov.uk/gambling_sectors/remote/getting_a_licence-_what_you_ne/do_i_need_a_licence.aspx http://www.gamblingcommission.gov.uk/gambling_sectors/remote... Do I need a licence if I am based abroad? You do not need a licence from us to run a remote gambling service if all of your remote gambling equipment is located outside Great Britain. If you are based abroad and want to advertise your gambling services in Great Britain, you must be based in a whitelisted country or a country mentioned in the Gambling Act 2005. What qualifies as our "gambling equipment"? Our webservers? That being said, it's still probably a good idea to get a license.
