I have seen or heard about disposable vapes with very high puff counts and/or more than 20mg/ml of nicotine, are these legal?

The maximum e-liquid capacity for disposable vapes is 2ml – this usually equates to around 600 puffs per device.  

Nicotine containing products which exceed this amount – especially those which claim to offer thousands of puffs – are most likely non-compliant and should not be sold in the UK.  

Further, the maximum nicotine concentration for vaping products in the UK – including bottles of e-liquid – is 20mg/ml. Anything above this is not legal.

With the theme ‘The Way Forward: Changing the Vaping Mindset’ expect a powerful agenda tackling the end of disposables, global supply chain shifts and the mindset transformation needed to help the remaining six million smokers make the switch.
