As of March 1, 2004, only cigarette brands and roll-your-own tobacco products listed in the Attorney General’s Directory of Certified Tobacco Manufacturers and Brands may be sold to Wisconsin consumers. Products that are not listed cannot be sold or possessed for sale after the date shown on the website listing. Wholesalers and retailers who possess this product for sale or sell this product in violation are subject to confiscation of that product and/or fines, forfeitures, and revocation of their permits.
Certification to the Attorney General, and appearance on the Attorney General's Directory of Certified Tobacco Manufacturers and Brands Directory, does not, on its own, permit a distributor to sell cigarettes into the State of Wisconsin. Distributors must continue to obtain pre-approval from the Wisconsin Department of Revenue.
