The US Food and Drug Administration has issued its final guidance on small-cigar-pack health-warnings, Compliance Policy for Required Warning Statements on Small-Packaged Cigars.

The compliance policy does not apply to other labeling provisions, such as the random display and distribution of cigar warning statements on packaging in accordance with an FDA-approved warning plan.
