Russian Lawmakers Propose Personal Limits on E-Cigarette Transport
Russian lawmakers propose a bill to limit the amount of unmarked e-cigarettes one can transport for personal use.

Representatives from United Russia have submitted a bill to the State Duma that would establish the maximum number of unmarked electronic cigarettes citizens can transport for personal use (currently known to be a maximum of five on airplanes). This initiative aims to combat the currently unchecked movement of unmarked products imported from EAEU (Eurasian Economic Union) member countries within Russia. State Duma representative Aidar Metshin noted that illegal markets for ESDN and liquid containing nicotine make up approximately 90% of the market.


Banning individuals from transporting large quantities of electronic cigarettes will help eliminate the tax revenue gap caused by the distribution of illegal products.


Earlier, the Ministry of Industry and Trade announced its plans to expedite the completion of trials for labeling nicotine liquids and electronic nicotine delivery systems, and begin mandatory labeling from November 1st of this year.
