Germany: oral tobacco, nicotine pouch and heated tobacco regulation

Published: 3rd May 2023 | No. pages: 29
$1,750.00

Description

Tobacco for oral use, including snus, is prohibited in Germany, with the exception of chewing tobacco. The German authorities consider tobacco-free nicotine pouches to be foods containing the unauthorised novel food ingredient nicotine, meaning they cannot be placed on the German market.

Heated tobacco is considered a novel tobacco product in Germany. Its regulatory burden depends on the classification of individual products as smoking or smokeless. Currently sold brands are subject to rules for smokeless tobacco. The tax rate on heated tobacco will have a gradual increase until 2026.

This two-report bundle provides a comprehensive overview of the current regulatory framework in place in Germany for oral tobacco, nicotine pouches and heated tobacco products, covering all policy areas.
