According to a report from TASS on April 26th, Yaroslav Nilov, a member of the Russian State Duma, stated that Russia plans to introduce a comprehensive ban on the retail sale of both nicotine and non-nicotine e-cigarettes. The bill is expected to be submitted to the State Duma in late May.
We will submit to the State Duma in the second half of May. We are still collecting signatures and awaiting government approval. I believe we will raise this issue during our communication with them, as it is a matter of principle.
The addendum of the bill emphasizes that Russia has already implemented a series of restrictions in this area, including banning the sale of e-cigarettes to minors, prohibiting the sale of nicotine products containing flavors and other additives, banning the public display and demonstration of nicotine product consumption devices, and prohibiting the market, exhibition, and remote sale of nicotine product consumption devices and their components.
However, lawmakers believe that "these bans are easily circumvented, allowing minors to still purchase e-cigarettes.
