A. Any person selling, marketing, displaying, giving, or distributing e-cigarettes or their components shall display a printed sign, posted so that it is clearly visible to anyone purchasing e-cigarettes or their components. The sign must be in contrasting colors and at least 20-point type and must read substantially as follows:
IF YOU ARE UNDER 18, YOU COULD BE SUBJECT TO PENALTY FOR PURCHASING E-CIGARETTES OR RELATED DEVICES OR THEIR COMPONENTS. THE SALE OF E-CIGARETTES OR RELATED DEVICES OR THEIR COMPONENTS TO PERSONS UNDER THE AGE OF 18 IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED. PHOTO ID REQUIRED.
B. The failure of a person to request and examine photographic identification from a person under eighteen (18) years of age prior to the sale, gift or distribution of e-cigarettes or related devices to such person shall be construed against the seller and form a conclusive basis for the seller's violation of this chapter.
