Russia to Change Process for Tobacco Manufacturer's Special Identification in 2024
Russia to change tobacco production labeling process starting July 1, 2024, eliminating need for bank guarantees or cash deposits.

According to a report from Interfax on June 17th, the official legal information website of Russia has announced that starting from July 1, 2024, Russia will change the process for tobacco manufacturers to obtain special markings.

 

On June 15th, the Russian government signed a relevant decree and published it on the official legal information portal website. This decree amends the government resolution dated January 26, 2010.

 

According to the new regulations, manufacturers no longer need to provide a bank guarantee or cash deposit when purchasing specialized labels.

 

Starting from June 1, 2024, Russia has implemented a new law introducing digital tax stamps, which are special identifiers used for tracking and control, and integrating them into the product labeling system.

U.S. Ninth Circuit Upholds FDA Denial of MH Global’s Flavored Vape PMTA Applications
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit upheld the FDA’s denial of MH Global LLC’s applications to market flavored electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS). The court ruled that FDA’s comparative-efficacy framework, which requires applicants to show that flavored products provide greater cessation or switching benefits than tobacco-flavored alternatives, is consistent with the Tobacco Control Act’s “appropriate for the protection of the public health” standard. The court also found that FDA was not required to establish the framework through notice-and-comment rulemaking.
