L'interdiction anglaise, par contre, est rédigée de manière beaucoup plus pragmatique : « A notice displaying the following statement : « IT IS ILLEGAL TO SELL TOBACCO PRODUCTS TO ANYONE UNDER THE AGE OF 16 » shall be exhibited at every premises at which tobacco is sold by retail, and shall be so exhibited in a prominent position where the statement is readily visible to persons at the point of sale of the tobacco » et elle ajoute, pour l'hypothèse de la vente par appareils automatiques : « THIS MACHINE IS ONLY FOR THE USE OF PEOPLE AGED 16 OR OVER».
Het Engelse verbod is dan weer veel pragmatischer opgesteld : « A notice displaying the following statement : « IT IS ILLEGAL TO SELL TOBACCO PRODUCTS TO ANYONE UNDER THE AGE OF 16 » shall be exhibited at every premises at which tobacco is sold by retail, and shall be so exhibited in a prominent position where the statement is readily visible to persons at the point of sale of the tobacco » en wordt toegevoegd voor het geval met automaten verkocht wordt : « THIS MACHINE IS ONLY FOR THE USE OF PEOPLE AGED 16 OR OVER».
