In addition, nearly 60% of US middle or high school students reported that it was easy or somewhat easy to buy tobacco products in stores.5 In California, which requires tobacco retail licensing and adopted Tobacco 21 in 2017, less than 30% of purchasers (ages 1920 years) were refused purchase of cigarettes or e-cigarettes because of their age.6 Under the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) works through state contractors to inspect tobacco retailers for marketing violations and underage sales.7 Although the FDA advises states to consider the factors associated with high risk of regulatory violations (eg, areas with high rates of youth smoking prevalence, easy access to cigarettes and minority communities),8 states are not required to use probability-based sampling strategies, and the inspection protocol is inconsistent across states.9 Past studies have found significant variations in the number of compliance inspections per capita and retail violation of sale to minors (RVSM) across states.10 11 For instance, the violation rate ranged from 1.4% (Montana) to 29.4% (New Hampshire) in the 2015 FDA compliance inspections.11 Empirical data are critically needed to inform probability-based inspection sampling design, which can leverage prior inspection results and other contextual factors to adaptively optimise inspection frequency and further provide tobacco retail education to the regions with a high propensity of RVSM
