How to find out whether betting is lawful where you live, why 'offshore' is not an answer, and what to verify.
Betting law is national and it varies enormously. What is routine and regulated in one country is prohibited in another, and living abroad means the rules that apply to you are the ones where you are physically sitting, not the ones where you grew up.
The check itself is straightforward: find your country's gambling regulator, confirm whether online sports betting is permitted for residents, and confirm whether the specific operator is licensed to accept customers there. Operators list their licensed markets, and a book that will not accept your registration is telling you something.
The answer that is not an answer is 'it is offshore so it is fine'. Whether an operator is based elsewhere does not determine whether you are permitted to bet, and in several jurisdictions it makes no difference at all.
