Requirements for packaging and labeling of tobacco products are to enter into force four months later, reports the Azerbaijan Business Center on its website.
The Azerbaijani State Committee on Standardization, Metrology and Patents postponed the date of using the standard AZS 335-2009 "Tobacco products. Packing and labeling" from 1 May 2011 to 1 September 2011, taking into account the appeals of tobacco producers, the State Committee said.
The rules were first approved in April 2009 and will be applied to tobacco products manufactured, imported and sold in the territory of Azerbaijan. (pi)
