TOBCSC5250 | Notified Seizures: Sampling notified seizures
From HM Revenue & Customs · Tobacco: Anti-smuggling or the duty to avoid facilitating smuggling
The minimum sample from each seizure that must accompany the written notification to the tobacco manufacturer is:
A carton of 200 cigarettes from each brand
one hundred grams of HRT from each brand
Where we are able to easily identify the manufacturer’s coding (batch code) in the seizure, we should make every effort to provide the above size of sample in respect of each code.
