“Tobacco sponsorship” means any form of contribution to any act, activity with the aim, effect, or possible effect of promoting, directly or indirectly, a tobacco product or tobacco use.

The definition of "tobacco sponsorship" contained in the law does not align with the definition of “tobacco sponsorship” provided in FCTC Art. 1(g) because it does not specifically cover contributions to any individual. To align with FCTC Art. 13 and the FCTC Art. 13 Guidelines, the law should provide a definition of "tobacco sponsorship" in accordance with the definition contained in FCTC Art. 1(g).

“Tobacco advertising and promotion” means any form of commercial communication, recommendation or action with the aim, effect, or potential effect of promoting, directly or indirectly, a tobacco product or tobacco use.

The definition of “tobacco advertising and promotion” contained in the law aligns with the definition of “tobacco advertising and promotion” provided in FCTC Art. 1(c).

“Tobacco products” means products prepared in whole or in part from tobacco leaves as raw material and intended to be smoked, inhaled, chewed, aspirated, sucked, snorted or otherwise consumed, such as manufactured cigarettes, handmade, pipes, cigars, water pipe (narghile-shisha), bidi, roll-your-own, pipe tobacco, electronic nicotine delivery system, heated tobacco products, dry or wet snuff, and others.

The definition of "tobacco products" contained in the law aligns with the definition of “tobacco product” provided in FCTC Art. 1(f).

“Point of sale” means any place where tobacco products are sold, whether indoors or outdoors.

The definition of “point of sale” is significant because the law restricts both tobacco advertising and display at points of sale.
