Check Am

Is the product you’re holding genuine ? By law all wines, spirits, beer, bottled water, juices, soda, energy drinks, cigarettes and other tobacco products must be marked with excise tax stamps in Sierra Leone. These tax stamps possess a number of security features and are all uniquely numbered with encrypted data codes. These codes are linked to a track & trace system holding information for each product individually. The National Revenue Authority is providing this free app to allow the public to check their consumer products. The check is detecting the security features of the excise tax stamps to determine if it is an authentic stamp. Immediate result of authenticity is given. On authentic stamps, information specific to the product scanned is retrieved from the track & trace system. All use of app and reporting is carried out anonymously. This allows consumers to protect themselves from potentially dangerous illicit goods, while assisting government in supporting law enforcement authorities in the fight against illicit trade.
