Belgium will ban all tobacco advertising fromfe 2021
All forms of tobacco advertising in Belgium will be banned from January 2021.
Currently, newsagent’s shops are still allowed to advertise tobacco products in the store, and on the facades. However, the parliament voted unanimously that all these forms of advertising will also be abolished, reports VRT.
