H M Revenue and Customs awarded a contract to Dentsu Aegis Network Switzerland AG for the provision of the UK Tobacco Track and Trace System, valued at AUD 5,000,000.

The system supports the UK's obligations under the WHO Protocol to Eliminate Illicit Trade in Tobacco Products, ratified in 2018, which requires a traceability system for tobacco products manufactured in or imported into the UK.

The provider's responsibilities include delivering an ID issuer service to ensure tobacco products are marked with a unique identifier, and a data repository and router to store product data accessible to HMRC.
