“We are the first jurisdiction in Aotearoa to be operational digitally, and the benefits that this technology brings to both te Kooti and landowners will be felt for generations to come.”
Since the establishment of the Native land Court 1865, we have collected and managed over 23 million documents, all of which are linked in some way to whenua and whānau Māori.

Māori Land Court hearings are open to the public. However, if a sensitive matter is being discussed, the judge may decide to close the court sitting to the public.
It is tūrangawaewae – the place where we come from, the place we belong to, the place we stand. Our key purpose is to promote the retention of Māori land in Māori hands, and to support landowners to use, occupy and develop their whenua for the benefit of all landowners, and their whānau and hapū.
The conduct of these proceedings would not have been possible without the foresight and commitment of landowners and the growing desire to have the status and role of te reo Māori recognised and living in all aspects of day-to-day life, including the Māori Land Court.
