Can the administrative penalty notification record be notified by WeChat?

According to the facts you described, this involves the way of delivery of administrative punishment documents. Service is a prerequisite for legal documents to take legal effect, and it is also a necessary procedure to protect the legitimate rights and interests of the parties. Article 40 of the Administrative Punishment Law stipulates that the written decision on administrative punishment shall be delivered to the parties on the spot after the announcement; If the party concerned is not present, the administrative organ shall, within seven days, serve the decision on administrative punishment on the party concerned in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Civil Procedure Law. Article 12 of the Supreme People's Court's Opinions on Civil Service stipulates that it is delivered by SMS, WeChat, etc. The service personnel shall record the sending and receiving mobile phone number, sending time and name of litigation documents, and take photos of the content delivered by SMS, WeChat and other means. And save them for future reference. Therefore, SMS and WeChat are listed as forms of electronic delivery.

It can be seen that WeChat delivery belongs to the category of electronic delivery. As far as tobacco administrative punishment documents are concerned, although it is feasible to apply electronic delivery in legislation and jurisprudence, electronic delivery methods such as SMS and WeChat are still in the stage of discussion and demonstration in the field of tobacco law enforcement. At present, administrative punishment documents are still delivered by mail or by entrustment.
