New Zealand Gambling Law

Online gambling at offshore casinos is legal for New Zealand residents under the Gambling Act 2003, which does not prohibit New Zealanders from accessing offshore gambling sites. However, the New Zealand government does not regulate offshore operators, meaning you do not have the same consumer protections available to you as with domestically regulated services.

The Department of Internal Affairs (DIA) oversees New Zealand's domestic gambling sector. For information on NZ gambling law, visit dia.govt.nz/gambling.

Gambling and Young People

Online casino gambling is for adults aged 18 and over only. If you are concerned about a young person's gambling, the Problem Gambling Foundation operates dedicated youth support services. Call 0800 654 655.
