France’s Gambling Regulator Tightens Oversight on Fraud and Money Laundering

The law requires gambling and betting operators to submit each year to the ANJ for approval their action plan on combating fraud, money laundering, and terrorist financing. 

The National Gambling Authority (ANJ) has reinforced its annual review process requiring operators to submit action plans against fraud, money laundering, and terrorist financing. The 2025 evaluations highlighted progress in customer identification, internal controls, and suspicious transaction reporting to TRACFIN, but also revealed areas needing improvement.

For 2026, operators are expected to strengthen staff training, refine risk classification criteria, and enhance internal monitoring. The ANJ has emphasized vigilance toward players in corruption-prone professions, stricter reporting standards, and tougher oversight of exclusive-rights operators, including sanctions for non-compliance.

The regulator’s prescriptions aim to ensure a robust AML/CFT framework, aligning industry practices with France’s broader strategy to combat organized crime and protect the integrity of the gambling sector.
