Nevis Gambling License
Nevis Online Gaming Authority (NOGA), St. Kitts & Nevis
Nevis entered the iGaming licensing market in 2025 with the Nevis Online Gaming Authority (NOGA), created under the Federation of St. Kitts & Nevis' 2025 online gaming regulations. It pairs a transparent, published fee schedule with the well-established Nevis corporate and trust ecosystem.
Licences renew annually on the anniversary of issuance, and fees are governed by NOGA's official prescribed-fee table — one of the clearest and most predictable licensing regimes in offshore iGaming.
Capital requirements
No large fixed minimum capital is published by NOGA. Applicants must evidence financial capacity and sound funding to cover operations and player liabilities as part of due diligence.
Tax treatment
Favourable offshore tax treatment under the St. Kitts & Nevis framework, with no gaming tax on GGR under the current regime.
Required documents
Certificate of incorporation and corporate documents for the applicant company (Nevis company recommended)
Certified passport copies and proof of address for directors, shareholders and UBOs
Due diligence files for key personnel and the business model
Business plan describing products, markets and payment solutions
AML/CFT policy and responsible gaming policy
Technical documentation showing the gaming platform meets regulatory standards
List of domains, URLs and sub-domains to be licensed
Corporate structure
The licence is held by a Nevis company (or an approved jurisdiction entity meeting NOGA requirements). Nevis LLCs and companies are quick to form, and the jurisdiction offers established banking, trust and fiduciary services. Annual renewal is due on the licence anniversary.
