No instrument establishes a licensing pathway for gambling at Union or Anjouan level. Licensing is confirmed as unavailable: the Central Bank of the Comoros states that the Anjouan Offshore Finance Authority has no authority to issue licences and that no online gaming licence has been issued nationally. This closes off the most commonly cited route for compliance teams evaluating an 'Anjouan' credential. The absence is reinforced from the adjacent finance sector: the Central Bank has separately confirmed that no licence has ever been issued for the offshore exercise of banking activities in general, meaning an offshore banking authorisation cannot substitute for, or be read as evidencing, a gambling licence. Taken together, these findings mean there is no licensing authority for an operator to apply to, no application process to follow, and no renewal or revocation framework to plan around, because no licence of either type has ever lawfully issued.
