Authorized Games of Chance and Skill > Pull-Tab Games
Short Summary
These legal documents govern the manufacture, sale, and distribution of pull-tabs in the state of Alaska. Licensed pull-tab manufacturers must comply with the Standards on Pull-Tabs of the North American Gaming Regulators Association and the Pull-Tab Record-Keeping and Reporting Standards. Pull-tabs must be manufactured in a way that makes it impossible to identify winning or losing tabs until played. They must be made using at least a two-ply paper stock construction, have an individual serial number and the manufacturer’s name printed on the face or cover, and provide instructions to the player. Pull-tabs within a series must have the same dimensions with minimal variation. Licensed manufacturers must establish their own method of game protection and inform the department of any changes. Pull-tab series must be assembled and packaged to ensure randomness and must be clearly marked with necessary information. Flare cards or seal cards must accompany each series. Licensed manufacturers can only distribute pull-tabs they have designed, constructed, assembled, and packaged. State identification stamps must be affixed to the flare card, and packing slips must be included in shipments. Licensed pull-tab distributors must provide written invoices, include state identification stamps, and track and account for all pull-tab games. Monthly reports must be submitted, and payment must be made to the distributing distributor. The pull-tab tax must be collected and paid to the Department of Revenue. Various rules and regulations are specified for the sale and conduct of pull-tab games, including limitations on sales price, restrictions on selling marked or tampered pull-tabs, and requirements for cash prizes. Mechanical or electronic devices, packaging, mixing, verification of identity, and defacing of winning pull-tabs are also addressed. The withdrawal and destruction of pull-tab series are governed by specific circumstances. These documents apply to various entities involved in pull-tab games in Alaska, but no specific exemptions or penalties are mentioned.
