New Jersey to Require Signature for E-cigarette Delivery Orders

New Jersey plans to require signatures upon delivery for e-cigarette products to ensure only adults aged 21+ purchase them.

According to a report by timesofcannabis on March 15th, New Jersey is planning to pass a law requiring e-cigarette products to be signed for upon delivery, in an effort to ensure that these products can only be purchased by individuals 21 years and older.

The state is attempting to add this layer of verification by requiring a signature at the time of delivery to prevent minors from accessing e-cigarette products. According to the new regulation, e-cigarettes or tobacco products cannot be shipped to residences without a signed confirmation of the recipient's age. This process is not just a formality, but a crucial checkpoint to protect minors in New Jersey, involving coordination between businesses, carriers, and consumers.

This signature requirement is expected to have a wide impact on businesses and consumers. At the same time, the measure also sets a precedent for other states looking to address the issue of underage e-cigarette use.
