Vietnamese Authorities Seize 5,000 LANAPRO E-Cigarettes and Chemicals.
Vietnam authorities seize 5,000 Chinese-made LANAPRO e-cigarettes and 11 cans of chemicals, worth 530 million VND.

The Market Management Department, Economic Security Department, and Provincial Police of Bac Ninh in Vietnam collaborated to confiscate 5,000 electronic cigarette products and 11 cans of chemicals.


Vietnamese authorities have seized 5,000 LANAPRO brand electronic cigarette products and 11 cans of chemical solution, 8 of which weighed 25 kilograms each and 3 of which weighed 5 kilograms each, all made in China.


The estimated total value of infringing goods is 530,000,000 Vietnamese dong (approximately 1.56 million Chinese yuan).


At the time, the individuals who were caught could not provide proof of the legality of the goods they were transporting through invoices and documents, which raised suspicion of wrongdoing. The inspection team has decided to temporarily confiscate all of the aforementioned goods and evidence.


After conducting an investigation, it has been determined that all of the aforementioned chemicals are anti-static solutions. Currently, the quantity of these chemicals has been confirmed. Additionally, there were 5000 units of LANAPRO brand electronic cigarettes among the remaining items, but the identity of the owner has yet to be determined.
