— identifying and consulting with stakeholders;
— planning the procurement process and selection of suppliers;
— the design and construction of tax stamps;

This document is applicable only to tax stamps that are physical in nature and apparent to the human senses of sight (with the aid of a revealing tool if necessary) or touch, applied to a consumer good or its packaging and which allow material authentication. When the term authentication is used in this document, it refers only to the authentication of the tax stamp, not to the product on which the tax stamp is affixed.
This document does not apply to systems or procedures that an issuing authority has in place to control and monitor its excise revenue collection, except by reference to them where they have an impact on the design or specification of tax stamps.
