Legality & Regulation
Online gambling has been legal in Mozambique since the 2010 amendment to gambling law; no special framework for online betting is needed.

Industry Context
1xBet is one of multiple sports-betting operators in Mozambique — alongside both local and international brands like Betway, Betmaster, and Hollywoodbets.

Operators face an online gambling tax of 10% Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR).

Global Reputation & Concerns
Internationally, 1xBet is licensed in Curaçao and based in Cyprus. It sponsors major clubs like FC Barcelona and PSG.

However, the brand faces scrutiny and legal issues: license revocations in some countries, bankruptcy of a Curaçao subsidiary, and allegations of unethical practices involving underage sporting events.
