Rhode Island General Laws — Title 44 (Taxation)
R.I. Gen. Laws § 44-20-7 — Vending machine markers
No person shall operate a machine for vending cigarettes unless there is attached
to the machine a disc or marker, in a form to be determined by the tax administrator,
showing that it is licensed by the tax administrator. The fee for each license is
twenty-five dollars ($25.00) as provided in § 44-20-4. Any licensed machine may be removed from one location to another within the state
under regulations that the tax administrator may prescribe without payment of an additional
fee. Any person who operates any machine for vending cigarettes in violation of the
provisions of this section is subject to the same penalties as provided in § 44-20-3 for the sale of cigarettes without a license.
