Mich. Admin. Code R. 205.409 - Shipping case identification
Rule 9.
(1) The
first purchaser of cigarettes in this state is required to identify each
original manufacturer's shipping case of cigarettes purchased with his name and
address and an impression of a seal prescribed by the department of
treasury.
(2) The seal has been
designed by the department and it includes the license number assigned to the
first purchaser. The name and address of the original purchaser and the seal
referred to in this rule shall be incorporated in a rubber stamp which shall be
obtained by each person licensed to make purchases of cigarettes from
unlicensed sources.
(3) The stamp
shall be obtained from a stamp manufacturer authorized by the department and
may be manufactured only on the written authority of the department.
(4) A manufacturer of stamps desiring to
manufacture or reproduce such stamps may receive authorization upon written
application and approval by the department. A list of authorized manufacturers
shall be supplied to cigarette licensees upon request.
(5) The stamp manufacturer shall obtain
verification from the department that the purchaser is a properly qualified
licensee. The department shall advise the manufacturer of the license number to
be incorporated in the seal.
(6)
The name and address of the licensee and the prescribed seal shall appear on
each shipping case so that when a manufacturer's shipping case is split, the
name, address, and seal shall appear in its entirety on each half of the
case.
(7) Cigarettes in cases not
stamped as provided in these rules shall be subject to seizure and confiscation
pursuant to section 9 of the act.
