Legal Question in Entertainment Law in New Jersey
Is a raffle license required?
I am working for a cruise message board that is sponsoring a group cruise. For every 16 passengers booked, we earn one free cabin. We'd like to be able to give the free cabin away as promotional to get people to join the board. Since we aren't charging money to be in the raffle, do we still need a license? If so, how do we do it (since we are Internet based and have people from around the world)?

A license is probably not required, but having very comprehensive terms and conditions that govern this promotion.
