Quick Answer: Is Sports Betting Legal in Vermont?

Yes. Sports betting is legal in Vermont, and has been since January 2024. Governor Phil Scott signed H 127 into law on June 14, 2023 (Vermont H 127, 2023-2024). The Vermont Lottery launched the first licensed mobile sportsbooks in January 2024. H 127 passed through both the House and Senate before reaching the Governor's desk, reflecting broad support for a regulated sports betting market.

  • Vermont is an online-only market. There are no retail sportsbook locations, casino floors, or in-person betting windows.
  • The Vermont Lottery oversees licensing, regulation, and operator contracts.
  • You must be 21 or older to place a wager.
  • Vermont law permits up to six mobile sports betting operators to hold contracts simultaneously.
  • A 2025 repeal bill, H 133, was introduced in the 2025-2026 legislative session and referred to the Committee on Government Operations.
