State-by-state rules
The raffle essentials for each Australian state and territory.
Last reviewed 5 June 2026
Each state and territory sets its own raffle rules. These pages summarise the essentials an organiser needs — who can run a raffle there, when a permit kicks in, and the prize and draw rules that bite most often.
A guide, kept current — but the regulator is the final word
These summaries are here to orient you, not to replace the law. Thresholds and rules change, and each state's regulator is the authority. We link to each one, and we keep this guidance up to date — but always verify with the regulator if you're making a decision that hinges on a specific figure. RaffleLink also checks your raffle against these rules automatically as you build it.
