Norway is well along with having a licencing system in place for import, export and manufacturing of tobacco products and tobacco equipment. New legislation is approved by the Norwegian Parliament but not yet in force. The new legislation and further regulations are expected to come into force as domestic law in the fall of 2020. Competent authority will be the Norwegian Directorate of Health. Licenses will only be given to legal persons, including legal persons with sole proprietorship.

Si bien no existe el otorgamiento de una licencia propiamente tal, se llevan controles de importación de productos de tabaco en la Autoridad Nacional de Aduanas y por ende se les solicita información relacionada a su actividad y a las declaraciones aduaneras que deben realizar.
Se tiene un control en cuanto a la comercialización basados en las facultades conferidas en la Ley 13 de 2008 y el Decreto Ejecutivo 230 de 2008, por el control de las advertencias y pictogramas sanitarios.
Aunado a ello contamos con la Ley 34 de 2015 que tipifica como contrabando la introducción de productos de tabaco a la República de Panamá, que no cumplan con las disposiciones sanitarias o aduaneras.
Existe una buena coordinación entre la Autoridad Nacional de Aduanas y el Ministerio de Salud. |
