Primary Text
Side Panel. Cigarette packages and other tobacco product packages found in the market, shall bear, on one (1) side panel, additional information which shall be issued by the DOH together with the templates in accordance with Section 15 of this Act, namely; additional health warnings, hotlines or websites for tobacco-related concerns, or tips on how to stop smoking. This information shall be prominently displayed and the text thereto shall appear in clearly legible type and in contrast by typograph, layout and color, without the use of any border or frame or any other design that will effectively lessen the size of the additional health warnings: Provided, That such additional information shall not occupy more than thirty percent (30%) of the display surface of one (1) side panel.
This is in addition to any fiscal markings as may be required by other government agencies such as the BIR.
