Tobacco (Access) Regulations

Tobacco (Access) Regulations
The Tobacco Act prohibits the sell of tobacco products to young persons (18 years of age or less) and requires retailers of tobacco products to post signs that inform the public that furnishing tobacco products to young persons is prohibited by law. These regulations specify the place, manner, form and content of signs to be posted in retail outlets. The regulations also set out the documentation that may be used to verify the age of the person purchasing tobacco products and exempt duty-free shop operators.
