Cambodia brought in tax revenue of $63.1 million from casinos and game of chance operators in 2024, a significant 85 percent yearly increase.

According to data released by the Commercial Gambling Management Commission of Cambodia (CGMC) cited by media, a total of 195 operating licenses have been granted in the country. One of these licenses has been revoked, while 15 have expired and one has been suspended.

Regarding games of chance, there are 21 operators licensed under the CGMC, with one having been cancelled and three being suspended.

Gambling in casinos in Cambodia is limited to foreigners, with the casinos largely spread along the border areas and the coastal region of Preah Sihanouk – home to Sihanoukville.

NagaCorp operates the only casino in the nation’s capital of Phnom Penh: NagaWorld.
