Kazakhstan Senate Proposes Advertising Ban on Non-Tobacco Products and E-cigs
Kazakh Senate sends health-related bill back to parliament, proposing ban on non-tobacco products, e-cigarettes, and advertising.

According to the latest report from Kazpravda, the Senate of Kazakhstan has sent back a bill related to adjusting healthcare-related laws to Parliament (Majilis). Senator Aynur Argyinbekova noted that the document proposes banning the sale of non-tobacco products, e-cigarettes, spices, and e-liquids, with penalties to be included in the criminal code.

 

In addition, the Senate proposed implementing an advertising ban on non-tobacco products and e-cigarettes in relation to the bill. For example, advertisements using trademark elements and the names of smoking tobacco products/e-cigarettes would be prohibited, as well as organizing various activities such as prize draws, lotteries, and other activities that promote demand and interest in non-tobacco products and e-cigarettes.
