Charitable Gaming
The Gaming division regulates, enforces and administers charitable gaming in North Dakota, performs audits and investigations of gaming organizations; reviews gaming tax returns, administrative complaints, and provides training for charitable gaming organizations.
Online Gaming
State law prohibits online gaming in North Dakota. An exemption exists for state-licensed charitable gaming organizations to provide online raffles, provided the system is through a licensed distributor in North Dakota.
Tribal Gaming
The Gaming division also enforces the tribal-state gaming compacts, which authorize the state’s Native American tribes to conduct gaming at casinos on tribal land. The division conducts random inspections at the state’s five Indian Casinos to ensure game integrity and compliance with wager limits and prize payout ratios. For information about the tribal-state gaming compacts, contact the Governor’s Office.
