Tobacco in Colombia

Despite the prohibitions of Law 1335 from 2009, banning sales of cigarettes to minors, sales of cigarettes by the stick, smoking in public places and advertising, young people in Colombia continue to smoke. For young people aged between 15 and 17 smoking is a symbol of status, maturity and independence. Although the sale of individual cigarette sticks has been banned, young consumers are expected to continue to smoke, thus helping to limit the decline in volume sales seen in 2011.
