Tobacco and OTP for licensed liquor stores
A liquor store with a valid Illinois tobacco retailer license can buy other tobacco products (OTP) here. The license is verified before a tobacco order is filled. Buyers must be 21+. The smoke and vape shop page has the assortment.
The Illinois Department of Revenue says stores apply through MyTax Illinois. A store that never sells cigarettes applies for the Tobacco Products Retailer license. A store that also sells cigarettes applies for the Cigarette and Tobacco Products Retailer license. The fee is $150 per location per year for applications and renewals submitted on or after July 1, 2025. See Illinois Department of Revenue bulletin FY 2025-31. This is not legal or tax advice.
