• Tobacco Regulations - Details 

The Mozambican government's anti-smoking regulations, launched on Thursday, but due to take effect only in December, effectively outlaw all advertising of cigarettes and other tobacco products.

All the public media are banned from advertising tobacco products - which formalises what is already standard practice on Radio Mozambique and Mozambique Television (TVM).

Quite new is a ban on tobacco advertising on the covers of magazines and other publications, and the outlawing of tobacco adverts on billboards, posters, railway and bus stations and any other public spaces.

The tobacco industry itself is banned from boasting about any sponsorship activities.
