Changes to Tobacco Product Packaging Marking
New regulations clarify what security markings (like excise stamps) must be on cigarette and other tobacco product packaging. This aims to improve tracking of these products on the market. The changes primarily affect manufacturers and sellers, not directly consumers.
Key points
Types of mandatory markings on tobacco product packaging (e.g., excise stamp or other security) have been defined.
Specific rules for marking products sold in duty-free zones or not subject to excise tax have been introduced.
The Minister of Finance will issue a regulation specifying the authenticity elements of these markings.
The law comes into effect on May 20, 2024.
