The Otamataha Trust administers property in Tauranga on behalf of Ngāti Tapu and Ngai Tamarawaho.

It was created on 6 June 2014 by The New Zealand Mission Trust (Otamataha) Empowering Act 2014.

This Act of Parliament also transferred ownership of property in Tauranga that had been lost to the hapū in 1838 to the Trust.
