GIABA's Second Round Mutual Evaluation Report, adopted at the May 2024 Plenary, records that activities related to casinos and gambling establishments are prohibited in the Union of the Comoros. The jurisdiction's overall regulation status is classified as unregulated-hostile, corroborated by two independent sources: the mutual evaluation itself and a Central Bank of the Comoros communique of 8 December 2025. That communique directly disavows the 'Anjouan Offshore Finance Authority' and associated gaming-claimant bodies, stating that no online gaming licence has been issued nationally. There is no dominant licensed operator base to describe, because no licensing regime exists; the market structure instead consists of a disavowed offshore claimant scheme operating outside any recognised national framework, against a regulator posture that has remained consistent for over a decade.
