Pursuant to HRS §486P-3(a), the Attorney General may bring a civil action against any entity that fails to file the reports required under this chapter.  Please be advised that the stamping or sale of cigarettes or RYO products is prohibited unless the cigarette or RYO product is listed in the Hawaii Tobacco Directory (Directory) pursuant to HRS sections 486P-5 and 486P-6.
