U.S. Food and Drug Administration

 

The Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act

 

On June 22, 2010, new FDA regulations restricting the sale and distribution of cigarettes and smokeless tobacco to protect children and adolescents took effect.

 

Break the Chain of Tobacco Addiction

Helping retailers comply with FDA tobacco regulations

 

FDA recognizes that retailers who sell tobacco products play a vital role in protecting our kids from becoming the next generation of Americans to die prematurely from tobacco-related disease.

 

By following federal and state tobacco regulations, retailers play an important role in keeping tobacco out of the hands of minors and helping them break the chain of tobacco addiction.

 

Learn more about the new regulations:

  • The Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act
  • Description of the Regulation
  • Who is Covered and Contact Information
  • Product Categories
  • Age and ID
  • Free Samples, Rebates, Coupons, and Proofs-of-Purchase
  • Advertising
  • Labeling
  • Enforcement
  • Consumers

Members of the general public can report violations to FDA's Center for Tobacco Products through our website (http://www.fda.gov/TobaccoProducts/default.htm), by e-mail (AskCTP@fda.hhs.gov), or by phone (1-877-CTP-1373).

In addition, you can cooperate with clerks and retailers by providing your photographic ID when buying cigarettes and smokeless tobacco.

The Tobacco Control Act grants the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) important new authority to regulate the manufacture, marketing and distribution of tobacco products to protect the public health generally and to reduce tobacco use by children and adolescents.
