Ukraine Bans Homemade E-cigarette Liquid, Cracks Down on Illegal Market- New Law Signed by President Zelensky aims to regulate thriving e-cigarette market, leading to billions in tax revenue losses and strict penalties for violators.
Ukrainian President Zelensky signed a law banning homemade e-cigarette liquid mixtures. From July 2024, it will prohibit flavored e-cigarette production, import, and sales. Despite this, the market remains active with illegal transactions worth billions of hryvnias. Ukraine loses around 5 billion hryvnias (about 100 million USD) in tax revenue annually due to the illegal market. Consumers can still easily buy homemade kits in Kyiv and elsewhere.
