Lotteries and community gambling

There are three types of lotteries which can be run in the Northern Territory - foreign, community and trade lotteries.

Community gambling activities such as raffles, lotto, tipping competitions, bingo, Calcuttas and sweepstakes are also allowed.

They are all governed by the Gaming Control Act 1993 and the Gaming Control (Community Gaming) Regulations 2006, and administered by Licensing NT.

They also must follow the guidelines in the Code of Practice for Responsible Gambling.
