European Laws on Heat-Not-Burn Devices

Let's look into where the European Union stands on tobacco heating devices like ISMOD. Tobacco heating products like ISMOD are generally subject to various laws depending on the country. But these regulations are not the same as the ones extended to cigarettes. Even the rate of taxes is lower for heat-not-burn devices like ISMOD. 

In Italy, these devices enjoy many perks compared to traditional cigarettes. They do not face many fiscal regulations. They are subject to lesser taxes. Even in terms of packaging, they need to cover only 30 percent of the product with health warnings. On the other hand, traditional cigarettes need to cover 65 percent of their packing with health risk images and messages.

In the EU, the Heat-Not-Burn devices come under the category of smokeless tobacco. The EU does not treat devices like ISMOD the same as combustible tobacco or even e-cigarettes. This allows for more significant market opportunity. Most of the laws on tobacco products were drafted before the widespread prevalence of Heat-Not-Burn devices. Because of this, some of the policies are open to interpretation. 

Some of the key regulations are:

  • The EU requires tobacco industries to be transparent with their ingredients.
  • There are comprehensive tracing and tracking of tobacco-related products to prevent illegal trade.
  • The EU countries need notification when such products enter their market. 
  • Heat-Not-Burn devices require lesser taxes than traditional tobacco. 

ISMOD for international buyers

If you're staying outside the UK, just go to ismod.co.uk or ismodeurope.com and check for your country's checkout rates. If your country does not appear in the list by any chance, it means that you cannot purchase the ISMOD Nano or the Plus II from your country of residence. 

International orders will also be zeroed of Uk or EU VAT and these applicable duty taxes and VAT would be due to the local authorities in the country of delivery.

Conclusion

Tobacco alternatives are becoming wildly popular in Europe and the UK. They offer a safer and risk-free approach to smoking. Although most of the laws drafted on tobacco do not extend to these Heat-Not-Burn products, there are specific regulations regarding promotion and even taxes.
