State Revenue Service of Latvia (VID, ex-IAUI)
Latvia’s gambling supervision moved from the IAUI inspectorate into the State Revenue Service (VID), which licenses the country’s 21 gambling organisers and runs one of Europe’s largest blocking registers — 8,000+ unlicensed domains blocked at DNS and payment level under art. 81. We mirror both the licensed list and the blocklist.

Why this is a Tier 2 — Established licence
Latvia licenses operators through its Lotteries and Gambling Supervision Inspectorate (IAUI) under a national framework, with a self-exclusion register and blocking of unlicensed sites. A small, properly regulated EU market — tier 2.
How it operates
The IAUI issues licences, supervises operators and blocks unlicensed gambling; licensed operators serve Latvian players under Latvian licences.
What protection does this licence give players?
Licensed-operator oversight
Operators must hold a Latvian licence and meet its conditions.
Self-exclusion register
Latvia operates a self-exclusion register applying across licensed operators.
If something goes wrong
Complain to the operator first; the IAUI supervises licensees and Latvian/EU consumer routes can assist. Confirm the operator is licensed in Latvia before depositing.
