On September 28th, the Dutch government's public consultation period regarding the possible ban on flavored electronic cigarette products is coming to a close.

A new regulation will prohibit all e-cigarette flavorings except tobacco and is set to take effect on January 1, 2023. However, products already on the market by December 31 can be sold until July 1, 2023.

The Dutch National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM) and the Ministry of Health have released a list of 16 ingredients allowable in legally marketed tobacco-flavored e-liquids.

Many advocates in the Dutch e-cigarette industry argue that ingredient restrictions will force all e-liquid manufacturers in the Netherlands to shut down.

Dutch e-cigarette advocates are seeking feedback from consumers and interested supporters around the world, even outside the European Union.

Previous efforts to ban flavored e-cigarettes in the Netherlands have all been unsuccessful.
