The employees of the public order service instruct and issue warnings to under 18-year-olds who consume tobacco products or alcoholic beverages. In addition, the tobacco products and alcoholic beverages are seized; the person with custody is informed in writing and can collect the seized items from the General Order Service by appointment.

Anyone who sells alcohol or tobacco products to persons under the age of 18 is committing an administrative offence which is punishable by a fine. If a fine is imposed, you will receive mail from the fine office.
