EDN48 Tobacco Stamping Regime – Contract Extension

February 2018

The purpose of this notice is to inform tobacco licensees and prescribed persons of an extension to the contract to design, manufacture and distribute excise stamps for tobacco products. This notice will also outline the new firm unit price of the excise stamp for tobacco products for the contract extension.

In January 2008, following a bidding process, the Canada Revenue Agency awarded a contract to design, manufacture and distribute excise stamps for tobacco products. The current stamp contract, which was set to expire on March 31, 2018, has been extended for 18 additional months to September 30, 2019.

In accordance with the extended contract, the firm unit price of the excise stamp for tobacco products for the period April 1, 2018 to September 30, 2019 will be $0.00711.
