Recordkeeping

Record-keeping Requirements for Distributors and Unclassified Importers of Tobacco Products: Distributors and unclassified importers of tobacco products are required to maintain records related to tobacco products on the premises where such tobacco products are possessed, stored or sold. Such records must be maintained on premises (physically or electronically) for a period of three years and must be available at all times for inspection by the Commissioner of Revenue Services or his or her authorized agents. If, upon request, a distributor or unclassified importer of tobacco products fails to immediately produce, or immediately provide electronic access to, records required to be maintained in connection with tobacco products possessed, stored or sold on premises, the distributor or unclassified importer will be subject to a civil penalty of $1,000 per day until such records are produced.
