Strict national regulator
Agenzia delle Dogane e dei Monopoli (ADM)
Players in Italy. You must be an adult with an Italian tax code and sign a gaming account contract with an authorised operator.
My verdict
Italy runs a closed, state-controlled online market with a single cross-operator exclusion register and mandatory limits. It protects players well but offers little flexibility, and I found no player complaint route on the regulator's pages. A clean ADM concession earns the top Licensing score.
What it requires from casinos
- Only one gaming account per player with each operator.
- The technical rules require a player-set deposit limit before the account is activated.
- Gaming platforms must be certified under ADM guidelines.
- Bonuses are allowed but may only be communicated in a purely informational way.
What to watch out for
- Indefinite self-exclusion can be revoked only after six months, even if you made it by mistake.
- ADM's player FAQ describes no complaint route, so start with the operator's support.
- Operators may limit bet sizes and bet types without giving reasons, with 7 days notice.

Can I self-exclude from all Italian online casinos at once?
Yes. The Registro Unico Autoesclusi covers all remote gaming concessionaires. You choose 30, 60 or 90 days or indefinite.
