Firsts searched for information on the trademark "COKII" and found that it is owned by Shenzhen Zilun Electronics Co., Ltd. The company was registered and established in May 2019 and is located in Bao'an District, Shenzhen. In July 2019, the company registered the "COKII" trademark under Class 34 - Tobacco and smoking accessories.

 

Most Chinese brands do not feature large screens or high-resolution designs

 

From the appearance of the products, most e-cigarette products launched in the Middle East do not feature a large screen design, only providing a small screen to display battery power and other information.

 

In terms of the number of puffs, while the competition in the e-cigarette market in the United States has surged to around 50,000 puffs, the new e-cigarette products in the Middle East region still maintain a range of around 10,000 to 20,000 puffs.

 

Furthermore, many of the e-cigarette products entering the Middle East are from Chinese brands, with the majority of them not appearing in popular e-cigarette markets like the United States.

FDA’s Center for Tobacco Products is reshaping how it approaches tobacco product review. Based on 2Firsts’ on-site reporting in New York and Washington, this report traces CTP’s emerging direction: stronger links between PMTA and tobacco harm reduction, more category-specific review, greater emphasis on decision-relevant science, more predictable timelines and expanded use of sPMTA for product modifications.

German Bundestag Passes Tobacco Tax Hikes: Vape Liquid Duty to Reach €0.44/ml, Heated Tobacco Taxes to Rise and Cigarettes Seen Near €12 a Pack
Germany's Bundestag passed amendments to the Tobacco Tax Act on October 15, 2026, setting out annual excise tax increases from 2027 through 2030 for e-cigarette liquids, heated tobacco, cigarettes and other tobacco products. Under the Finance Committee's amended bill, duty on qualifying e-liquids will rise from €0.32/ml in 2026 to €0.44/ml in 2030, an increase of 37.5%. Heated tobacco will retain its tax calculation based on 80% of the corresponding cigarette excise duty. The average price of a 20-cigarette pack is projected to approach €12 by 2030, with some brands potentially reaching €14. The legislation is projected to generate approximately €11.8 billion in additional tax revenue over four years and remains subject to further legislative procedures.
