The Disputes Tribunal is a small claims court in New Zealand. It can hear certain civil claims up to a disputed sum of $30,000.[1] Many claims are for relatively small amounts.[2] The Tribunal has offices and holds hearings at locations in major towns and cities throughout the country.

The Tribunal is administered under the Disputes Tribunal Act 1988.
