China's Electronic Cigarette Regulations and Their Impact
2FIRSTS presents on China's vaping regulations at Dortmund tobacco expo. ECigIntelligence highlights their insights on the global impact.

2FIRSTS was invited to attend the tobacco exhibition in Dortmund, Germany where they delivered a speech titled "China's e-cigarette regulations and its impact on e-cigarette trade" at the forum. Upon hearing the presentation, ECigIntelligence, an international tobacco data research institution, wanted to delve deeper into China's electronic cigarette policies. They conducted an online interview with 2FIRSTS after the event and used their views as a reference to write an article introducing the impact of China's e-cigarette regulatory policies on the global e-cigarette industry. ECigIntelligence quoted 2FIRSTS views as follows:


The licensing system will ensure quality assurance for electronic cigarette products.


The electronic cigarette production licensing system provides quality assurance for importers and exporters, serving as proof for manufacturers that their factories and production processes meet national requirements and are certified. This allows foreign importers to have confidence that they are receiving legitimate products of guaranteed quality. 2FIRSTS has a "Licensed Enterprise Database" section on its website which collates data from the publicly available information on the China National Tobacco Monopoly Bureau website. China's e-cigarette regulations will impact the core of the e-cigarette industry chain and all related sectors, including nicotine and e-liquid manufacturers, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), brands, production companies with independent trademarks and factories, wholesalers and retailers. The "Regulations on the Administration of Electronic Cigarettes" will be highly beneficial for China's e-cigarette industry as it will raise overall standards and enhance the reputation of "Made in China" by eliminating unscrupulous companies from the market.


2FIRSTS representative Jason delivers a speech at the Dortmund Tobacco Exhibition.


China's regulatory policies will bring about sustainable development in the electronic cigarette industry.


As the electronic cigarette industry faces increasing legalization and regulation, compliance is becoming paramount to a company's competitiveness in the field. Businesses that adhere to regulations not only help establish a positive image for China's electronic cigarette industry, but also aid in promoting healthy development worldwide. With China's government placing more emphasis on sustainability and environmental standards, electronic cigarette companies can invest in sustainable development initiatives. Additionally, the technology and standards of electronic cigarettes will improve, leading to significant changes in the field in the coming years.
