E-liquids, vapes and pods
E-cigarettes and liquids need an EU-CEG notification six months before sale, plus a CLP label, the health warning under tobacco law and usually a poison centre notification. We handle everything from a single source.
Send enquiryWhich obligations apply to e-liquids and vapes?
E-cigarettes and refill containers are subject to the Tobacco Products Directive 2014/40/EU and at the same time to the CLP Regulation. Before sale comes the notification via the EU-CEG portal, at least six months in advance. In Germany this has also applied to nicotine-free liquids since 2021.
The most important requirements
- Limits: a maximum of 20 mg nicotine per ml, refill containers a maximum of 10 ml, disposable vapes and cartridges a maximum of 2 ml.
- Closure: child-resistant and tamper-evident, with leak-free refilling.
- Health warning: “This product contains nicotine which is a highly addictive substance.” on 30 % of the main surfaces, plus a leaflet.
- CLP label: liquids containing nicotine are usually classified as acutely toxic. This leads to pictogram, hazard statements, tactile warning and usually a poison centre notification with UFI code.
