The UKVIA has been in active discussions with the Medicines & Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) and Trading Standards to address the rising problem of non-compliant disposable products in the UK market. It has now moved quickly to publish guidance for retailers which clarifies the regulations around disposable vape products.
The free guide, which has been produced in conjunction with leading vaping compliance specialists, Arcus Compliance, provides information on current UK regulations in relation to tank/reservoir capacity of devices, nicotine levels and the elements that must be contained on packaging. It also provides details in respect to registrations with and notifications from the MHRA. It comes fast on the heels of the Associations call to regulators to take tough action and apply robust enforcement on resellers and retailers who were found to be flouting UK regulations for such products.
The guide is available to download here.
