Netherlands Bans Flavored E-Cigarettes Starting 2023.

Netherlands bans all non-tobacco e-cigarette flavors starting October 1st, 2023.

According to a report from the Dutch newspaper, Netherlands will ban all electronic cigarette flavors except tobacco from October 1, 2023, citing an amendment to the Citizenship Act. The ban also applies to refillable e-cigarettes and disposable e-cigarettes.

The ban was announced in 2020 and will also include a prohibition on packaging that depicts anything other than tobacco, as well as limits on product naming rules.
