When you receive your gaming licence, nobody hands you a calendar. There is no single document from any regulator that says here is what you owe, file, submit, and renew, and when. You are expected to know theThis is the calendar I wish someone had given me.
Compare the Anjouan, Curaçao, MGA and Nevis licenses by budget, timeline, banking and payment processing access and operational complexity.
The most common question I get about Anjouan is some version of "what does it actually cost, all in, no surprises?" It is a reasonable question, and the fact that it is hard to answer from public sources is a real problem.
The honest answer is that neither licence is universally better. They serve different operators at different stages with different risk profiles and different budgets. What I will do in this article is lay out the actual differences as they stand in 2026.
Most guides to the Anjouan gaming licence start at the licence application form. They skip over the fact that you cannot submit that application without a company that already exists. The Anjouan IBC must be incorporated first.
You have the platform. You have the games, the payment processor, the brand. You sit down to look at the licence application and realise it is forty pages long, references four pieces of legislation you have never heard of, and expects a Board-approved AML policy within thirty days.
