Russia to Introduce Mandatory Labeling for E-cigarettes
Russia's Duma Health Committee's deputy chairman approves mandatory labeling of e-cigarettes and e-liquids starting on November 1st.

Fedor Tumusov, the First Deputy Chairman of the Health Protection Committee of the State Duma in Russia, has expressed his appreciation for the mandatory labeling of electronic cigarettes and their liquids in the Russian Federation starting from November 1. He added that thanks to the labeling, it will be possible to control the flow, sales, and quality of goods.


According to him, this innovation will assist in formulating measures to curb the spread of nicotine products and electronic cigarettes. Currently, it is unclear where e-cigarettes are manufactured, who supplies them, and how they are sold, and the labels will play a significant role in these aspects.
