Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/574 of 15 December 2017 on technical standards for the establishment and operation of a traceability system for tobacco products (Text with EEA relevance) (c. 574)

ANNEX IIU.K. Key messages to be sent by the economic operators

The messages required for regulatory purposes shall contain at least the data fields listed in this Annex. Both ID issuers and providers of data repositories (including the router) may decide to extend the message content for strictly technical purposes to secure smooth functioning of the tobacco products traceability system.

The messages listed in this Annex do not include the messages to be sent back by ID issuers and providers of data repositories (including the router) to the economic operators, such as acknowledgments of receipt.

All the messages generated within the tobacco traceability system shall contain the identification of the originator and a timestamp up to the second (see Data Type: Time(L)). ID issuers and providers of data repositories (including the router) shall timestamp each received message up to the second.
