In accordance with Act No. 64-162 and by resolution adopted by the Lauderdale County Commission, ALDOR has been designated as the agency to collect Lauderdale County tobacco taxes. The effective collection date to submit these taxes to ALDOR is September 1, 2025. The appropriate taxes are to be collected and remitted to ALDOR beginning with the September 2025 return, which is due no later than October 20, 2025. The taxes levied are as follows:
Cigarettes
Cigars
$0.02 per pack
$0.01 each
The cigarette tax will be collected by affixing a Lauderdale County revenue stamp. Taxpayers will be notified when the cigarette tax stamps are available for purchase from ALDOR. Until Lauderdale County revenue stamps become available, cigarette tax must be remitted on the monthly county tobacco tax return via My Alabama Taxes (https://myalabamataxes.alabama.gov/_/).
Please ensure that the person responsible for preparing the monthly county tobacco tax returns receives this notice.
