Nemzeti Dohánybolt

Nemzeti Dohánybolt (Hungarian for 'state tobacco store') is a state-owned store type in Hungary responsible for all legal sales of tobacco within Hungary. The company responsible for running the stores, Nemzeti Dohánykereskedelmi Nonprofit Zrt, was founded in 2011 after the Second Orbán Government passed laws intended to curb the sale of tobacco.[1]

The shops must not have wares on display to those outside, similar to the rules for betting shops in the United Kingdom. Depending on the size of the shop, they also may often serve coffee and soft drinks, but it is illegal to smoke in a dohánybolt. Some of the larger have tables outside and essentially become a café.
