What are Finland's regulations on electronic cigarettes?

On April 13, 2022, the Tobacco Law Amendment Act 283/2022 was issued. The Act made requirements for nicotine free electronic cigarette products: when the product is intended to be sold in the Finnish market, a notice should be submitted to Valvira six months in advance, with an annual supervision fee of 0.01 euro/ml, which took effect on May 1, 2022. In 2023, the annual report information should be submitted to Valvira for the first time.

The unit package of electronic cigarettes and bottled tobacco oil containers must have the product name, the name and contact information of the manufacturer or importer, as well as the package size, taste, production date, barcode and other information of the product.

After the implementation of the standards, the electronic cigarette products sold on the market must meet the national standards. The products and services that do not meet the mandatory standards shall not be produced, sold, imported or provided.
