We prove a cone-type criterion for a boundary point to be regular for the Dirichlet problem related to (possibly) degenerate Ornstein–Uhlenbeck operators in $ \mathbb{R}^N $. Our result extends the classical Zaremba cone criterion for the Laplace operator.

Keywords: Ornstein–Uhlenbeck operators, Dirichlet problem, Perron–Wiener solution, boundary regularity, exterior cone criterion, hypoelliptic operators, axiomatic potential theory.
