The Czech Republic through the Ministry of Agriculture has applied to the European Commission for a ‘Place of destination’ exemption in the area of generation of codes, which provides authorisation to issue codes for foreign tobacco products placed on the domestic market. Manufacturers and importers from the entire European Union who want to supply tobacco products to the territory of the Czech Republic must apply to the STC for a unique identifier.
