Streamlining the process of obtaining EU e-cigarette TPD certification

Product Specification

How to register for EU e-cigarette TPD certification?

What is the EU Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) and article 20 directive?

The Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) is a regulation used to regulate and supervise product manufacturing, sales, display (product design, packaging, etc.) and all tobacco and tobacco-related products (such as e-cigarette products). The Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) is ostensibly designed to allow tobacco products to operate smoothly in the international market. In fact, many provisions of the TPD are designed to reduce the attractiveness of tobacco products and achieve higher standards of protection for human health. The EU Tobacco Directive TPD (2014/40/EC) came into effect in May 2014, and the two-year transition period has ended. E-cigarette products exported to the EU market must comply with the requirements of the TPD directive, otherwise they will be banned, confiscated or returned, which will bring huge losses to e-cigarette manufacturers.
