Millî Piyango İdaresi (MPI, English: National Lottery Administration) is the Turkish national lottery body.

Established on 1 June 1993, it operates a variety of games besides the main Millî Piyango [tr], including Sayısal Loto (6/49) [tr], Süper Loto (6/54) [tr], Şans Topu (5/34 + 1/14) [tr], and On Numara (22/80) [tr].[1]

An attempt to privatise it was cancelled in 2008 after bidders failed to meet the government's $1.6bn valuation.[2]

Milli Piyango has arranged some sports sponsorship, including of the Maliye Milli Piyango SK and Milli Piyango Curling Arena.[citation needed]
