<br>A new licensing regime for gambling companies in Sweden will take impact from 1 March 2026, managed by the Gambling Inspectorate of [Spelinspektionen](https://www.gialia.net.gr/season-essentials).<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>[Authorised](https://www.keysprostore.com/index.php?route=journal3/blog/post&journal_blog_post_id=8) by the Riksdag, the reform resets supervision charges for certified gambling operators (B2C) and technology and video games providers (B2B)<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>A [brand-new charge](https://imgo.cc/carlospulsford) [structure consists](https://liposuctioncannulas.com/index.php?_route_=blog/journal-blog-is-here) of a headline yearly charge of SEK 240,000 (EUR21,000) per B2C licence and SEK 16,500 (EUR1,450) for betting software authorizations. The upgraded structure is formalised under regulation SIFS 2026:1, changing the existing cost guideline SIFS 2024:4.<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>The modification does not modify what gambling activities are permitted in Sweden, however makes it possible for the expense of regulatory guidance under the Gambling Act 2018 to reflect deepening needs undertaken by [Spelinspektionen](https://gitea.keevo.com.br/rosalindstrunk).<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>A crucial structural change is that supervision fees will be charged per licence instead of per business group.<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>As an outcome, operators holding both a commercial online gambling establishment licence and a betting licence will be required to pay different [yearly fees](https://www.ancient.pk/author/angelotimmons4/) of SEK 240,000 (EUR21,000) for each [licence held](https://www.autoverzekeringstudenten.nl/mag-eindelijk-rijden-hoe-zit-verzekering/).<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>For B2B licences, SIFS 2026:1 develops a rolling 12-month supervision duration beginning from the date a licence or software application license is given, with subsequent 12-month durations obtaining as long as the authorisation stays in force.<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>Should a licence run for less than a full year, charges may be calculated on a pro-rata basis, based on a minimum charge equivalent to one twelfth of the yearly quantity.<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>Supervision should be invoiced and paid beforehand. However, where a licence stays active due to a court judgment or legal continuation, Spelinspektionen might invoice the relevant fee retrospectively. The regulator also keeps discretion to reduce or waive fees in exceptional circumstances.<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>The revised licence charge structure will [support](https://gratisafhalen.be/author/svensegal28/) Spelinspektionen as it manages a broad set of reforms to [Sweden's online](https://mineralis-wiki.minesparis.psl.eu/index.php?title=Utilisateur:ReneKippax96) gaming structure.<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>System change in 2026<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>From 1 April 2026, Spelinspektionen and the Ministry of Finance will implement a "complete restriction on credit-funded gaming transactions", prohibiting licensed operators from processing payments linked to credit cards, [personal](https://git.test-jsp.com/margretdescote) loans, overdrafts or buy-now-pay-later (BNPL) products. The measure is deemed as the most comprehensive prohibition on credit-based gaming deals introduced by a European state.<br>
