Bill Summary

A BILL for an Act to create and enact a new section to chapter 51-07 of the North Dakota Century Code, relating to requiring vendors to provide physical copies of tickets upon request.

AI Summary

This bill introduces a new requirement for ticket vendors in North Dakota that mandates they provide physical ticket copies to customers upon request, even if the original ticket was purchased and delivered in a digital format. Specifically, when an individual buys a ticket for an event and receives it electronically (such as via email or mobile app), they now have the right to ask the vendor for a printed, physical ticket at no additional cost. The only fee a vendor may charge is up to ten dollars for shipping and handling the physical ticket. This legislation is being added to Chapter 51-07 of the North Dakota Century Code, which likely deals with consumer protection or commercial transactions. The bill aims to give consumers more flexibility in how they receive and present event tickets, potentially helping those who prefer physical tickets or may have difficulty accessing or displaying digital tickets.
