According to public information, in early May, VEEV published 32 SKUs in the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) e-cigarette query system in the UK. These new SKUs were all applied for registration by PHILIP MORRIS PRODUCTS SA, specifically for the VEEV ONE SE, VEEV ONE, and VEEV brands.

 

 

VEEV ONE SE & VEEV ONE are Pod System Main Devices

 

 

VEEV ONE SE and VEEV ONE are two e-cigarette device SKUs categorized as "rechargeable e-cigarettes, device only", indicating that any rechargeable and refillable device should be classified as refillable category. This means that these are pod system main devices, rather than e-liquid (or pod) subtypes with specific flavors or nicotine content.

In the interview, he discussed patients' quality of life, Japan's shift towards heated tobacco products, and the challenges of quitting smoking for people with mental illness. Drawing on addiction treatment work in the Philippines, he advocated support rather than punishment and questioned whether fear-based health warnings effectively address the reasons people continue smoking.

Russia's State Duma Passes Tobacco and Nicotine Ingredient Disclosure Bill, Targeting 2027 End to Trade-Secret Protection for Certain Harmful Ingredient Data
Russia's State Duma passed a government-sponsored amendment on November 11, 2026, by 414 votes to none, seeking to prevent businesses from classifying information on the presence and number of types of certain harmful ingredients in tobacco and nicotine-containing products as trade secrets. The measure covers ingredients capable of increasing nicotine dependence or exhibiting toxic, carcinogenic, mutagenic or reproductive toxicity, including substances that acquire such properties during heating or smoldering. Bill No. 1286415-8 would amend Article 5 of Federal Law No. 98-FZ on Commercial Secrets and is scheduled to take effect on January 1, 2027. The bill has cleared all three readings in the State Duma but has not completed the remaining legislative procedures.
