A casino genuinely licensed in Romania by the ONJN
Visit 12xbet →12xbet welcome bonus in Romania
Context for Romania: Romania's check runs the opposite way to most people's instinct, and getting it backwards is the common mistake. The ONJN publishes both a blacklist of unlicensed domains and a WHITE LIST of licensed operators - Class I for operators, Class II for suppliers - and only the white list makes play lawful. A site being absent from the blacklist proves nothing: you will probably still be able to reach it, but playing there is unlawful unless it appears on the white list. The blacklist is large and actively enforced - 1,546 domains have been ordered blocked by ISPs, and Polymarket was added on 29 October 2025. Check any operator against the Class I list at onjn.gov.ro before depositing rather than trusting a licence badge or an affiliate page, this one included. The market is also tightening fast: Law 141/2025, in force from 1 August 2025, raised the annual authorisation tax from 21% to 30% of gross gaming revenue and the minimum annual fee from EUR 400,000 to EUR 480,000; operators need a permanent establishment in Romania and, where their servers sit abroad, mirror servers on Romanian soil giving ONJN real-time access. Advertising rules are moving too - celebrity and influencer endorsements are already banned across TV, radio and social media, Bucharest is removing gambling publicity from city-controlled outdoor sites from 1 January 2026, and the regulator's 2026 agenda proposes raising the gambling age from 18 to 21 plus restricting online promotions between 06:00 and midnight.

Our verdict
LICENCE EXPIRY: the ONJN Class I licence behind this brand, L1160650W000194 (Level Up Interactive Limited, Malta, also covering Winmasters, PariuriPlus and King Casino), EXPIRED ON 30 JUNE 2026 and we have not been able to confirm a renewal. Renewals are routine and ONJN's own register returns 403 to us, so this is not an allegation that the site is trading unlicensed - but we can no longer call the licence current, and you should check the ONJN list yourself before depositing. What follows was written while that licence was in date. 12xbet is a casino licensed in Romania by the ONJN (licence L1160650W000194, licence dated to 30 June 2026), offering a tiered welcome package across three deposits totalling up to 2,200 RON (1,000 + 500 + 700 RON, each matched 100%, minimum deposit 50 RON), with a 35x wagering requirement on deposit plus bonus, a maximum stake of 20 RON per round, and a 14-day window to clear it. We found no regulatory action against this operator in the sources we consulted, which is a statement about our research rather than about the operator. If you're in Romania, 12xbet was a licensed, credible choice while that licence was current.

Trust & licensing (30%)6
A real positive: genuine, currently-valid ONJN licence (L1160650W000194, which EXPIRED on 30 June 2026 with no renewal we could confirm). Marked down because the licence we cite EXPIRED ON 30 JUNE 2026 and we cannot show a renewal - not an accusation, since renewals are routine and ONJN's register is unreachable from here, but we will not score a permission we can no longer verify as current.
