AKD is the first ID Issuer in EU to put their solution in production even before the deadline set by the EU Directive

 AKD as a national ID issuer for the Republic of Croatia, started issuing unique identification codes to economic operators on April 23, 2019. By 20 May, 2019 - once the TPD Directive enters into force in EU, all economic operators in the chain of tobacco production and sales must be registered and labelled with a unique identification code. Such a way of linking and labelling allows pack unit-based monitoring of tobacco products from the production phase to the market.
