International football matches are not covered by ticket-touting legislation yet, according to the Minister for Trade Promotion.
It's been illegal to re-sell tickets above face-value since July 31st.

He says they should do so - as tickets are being offered at inflated prices online for next month's World Cup qualifier against Portugal.
