343 Anjouan Licences Are Marked "Valid". Their Expiry Date Has Already Passed.

Method, so you can repeat it

We fetched https://anjouangaming.com/license-register/ on 2026-10-10 and parsed the register it publishes. For every entry we compared the status field with the expiry field. No interpretation: an entry counts here only if the regulator's own file says status = valid and the expiry date is in the past.

The longest-running case is 449 days past expiry and still marked valid. A further 300 licences expire within 90 days.

What this does not prove. A stale register row may mean a renewal was processed and not published. It does not by itself prove any operator is unlicensed. What it does show is that a player cannot use this register to check, which is the only reason a public register exists.

Enforcement, for context

Anjouan's enforcement pages, as we read them on 2026-10-10, list 2 revocations and 1 suspension, against 1,543 licences in the register edition of the same date. We hold one earlier reading, from 2026-10-08: 2 revocations and 1 suspension. Nothing above it is new since that reading.

Using this

Casinos this register stopped listing, with what each did when we requested it the same morning. Built from 63 dated captures.

The table is free to quote with attribution. It is measured against the register edition named above, not against today, because comparing a captured document to a moving clock is not a measurement. The counts on this page are that one edition; the 63 captures behind the departures link are how we get the change between editions.

The other jurisdictions we check

Same question, different authority, counted the same morning: Curaçao · Costa Rica. The Curaçao authority also publishes a register of its own, and we counted how much of it is past its printed expiry date.
