Is Online Gambling Legal in Singapore?

Whether playing at online casinos is legal for players based in Singapore is a constant topic of discussion amongst the local gambling community and the answer is unfortunately (or, perhaps fortunately!) not all that straight forward.

Whilst it sounds as if the law in Singapore has been considerably relaxed over the past few years, there is still little information and a great deal of confusion. But it doesn’t actually seem to matter all that much in reality.

There are many online players in Singapore including high profile poker players who seem happy and confident enough to publicise the fact that they play online. If in fact online gambling is illegal, there is certainly no enforcement of the law by the Singaporean authorities.
