Cambodia, having suffered for decades, is beginning to emerge as a stable, competitive and attractive player in the region. A new casino administration law is said to be in the works, however gambling operators remain subject to other laws. Recently the country's largest operator suggested the possibility of offering a sub-concession of its operation in the capital Phnom Penn.
Cambodia is a jurisdiction strategically located in the centre of Asia and is currently experiencing significant  growth in tourism. Corresponding with this is the growth of casino royalties in recent years.

This report examines the opportunities that exist for operators and manufacturers who are seeking to enter into this region by providing analysis of the key laws which govern the gaming sector in Cambodia.

With an exclusive license granted to Ariston for a casino in Phenom Penh, new casino operators are limited to particular regions in border regions. This report provides analysis of this environment.

Other aspects covered in this report are sports betting, gaming machines, lotteries and taxation as well as a comprehensive analysis of Cambodia’s money laundering laws.  Updated regularly, this report is an essential account of the gaming sector in Cambodia.
