In-Person- Duration
- 1 year, 5 years, lifetime, or another term accepted on the form
- Covers
- The New Mexico racetrack and tribal gaming facilities selected in the request
How to Apply for New Mexico Self-Exclusion
Schedule an in-person meeting with the Gaming Control Board and choose the facilities and term shown on the current form.
- Open the Gaming Control Board self-exclusion page and review the current request form before choosing a term or facility scope
- Call 505-841-9700 or use the Board's scheduling page to arrange an in-person meeting at 4900 Alameda Boulevard NE in Albuquerque or ask about another approved location
- Bring a government-issued photo ID with your signature and photograph; Board staff will take a current photograph during the appointment
- Choose a one-year, five-year, lifetime, or other available term and identify the racetrack or tribal gaming facilities you want covered
- Complete and submit the request with Board staff; do not mail it because the Board requires in-person identity verification
Removal, Expiry, and Account Reopening
A fixed term remains in effect for the full selected period and the form says the name is removed when that period expires. A person may also file a verified written petition for removal, but the Board will not consider it until at least one year has passed. The petitioner must show that removal is in the public interest, and the Board says it will decide within 90 days.
Important Notes
Coverage follows the facilities identified in the approved request. The Board says exclusion applies to gaming operations and gaming-floor areas at those facilities. A tribal gaming authority may impose a broader property restriction. The verified materials do not establish coverage for the New Mexico Lottery, online products, unlicensed sites, or gambling outside New Mexico.
