landontc Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Can anyone tell me what license is required for a Hookah bar? I realize sales tax, etc., but specifically for the sale of shisha, does it fall under the cigarette retail license? Or could it fall under Tobacco License - Unstamped (smokeless)?I realize it's not smokeless, but is it a form of unstamped tobacco? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please contact your local Department of Small Business Services and consult with an advisor. Many states will have specific restrictions on tobacco businesses so you should investigate that. Best of luck in your venture.Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
