Message from DOR – Stamps on Cigarette Cartons

SCACS has been getting calls and messages regarding stamps on Cigarettes, below is a message from DOR.

This is a reminder: The main thing right now is to make sure that all unstamped product is out of their store by October 1, 2019.  If our agents find any unstamped product after October 1, 2019 they will seize the product and issue a violation of $500.00 per pack.  The grace period ends October 1, 2019 for all of their cigarettes purchased prior to January 1, 2019.  We are still seeing product purchased prior to January 1, 2019 on the shelf for sale.
