Cigarette packs (20) are often provided with a (tax) label (26) which extends across an end face (23) and adjoining pack faces. The process of attaching the label (26) has to be integrated into the complex flow of production. For this purpose, the label (26) is held ready in front of a mouth-piece opening (inserting opening 32) in a transverse plane, such that the label is folded round the pack (20) in a U-shaped manner when the pack passes through the mouthpiece opening. The packs (20) are transported in tight arrangement, such that the end face (23) of one pack (20) abuts the bottom (35) face of another pack (20) being in front. The label (26) is thus "clamped" between two adjacent packs (20) and therewith additionally fixed in position. The labels (26) are introduced into the continuous feed flow of the packs (20) and of the pack channels (31) for receiving the packs via a stationary label dispenser (84), such that the labels (26) are held ready in front of the inserting opening (32) of a pack channel (31) and are folded in a U-shaped manner by the insertion of the pack (20) into the pack channel.
