Regulation on Consumable Tobacco, Nicotine Chewing Tablets and Heated Tobacco in Ireland

Regulation on Consumable Tobacco, Nicotine Chewing Tablets and Heated Tobacco in Ireland
ResearchAndMarkets.com recently released a report on the regulation of oral tobacco, nicotine chewing gum, and heated tobacco in Ireland.

According to a press release from PR Newswire on December 6th, ResearchAndMarkets.com has recently published a report titled "Regulation of Oral Tobacco, Nicotine Chewing Products, and Heated Tobacco in Ireland.

 

This report provides a detailed analysis of the current regulations on oral tobacco and nicotine chewing products in Ireland. Despite oral tobacco products fading from the public eye in recent years, the report suggests that significant changes are not expected in the near future. However, the regulation of nicotine chewing products may be subject to changes, largely depending on the forthcoming European Union Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) and Tobacco Excise Directive (TED).

 

The report also thoroughly analyzed the regulations currently in place in Ireland regarding heated tobacco products, including all existing and potential future regulations. In Ireland, the Public Health (Tobacco) Act governs the advertising, retail, and public use of tobacco products, while the European Union (Manufacture, Presentation and Sale of Tobacco and Related Products) Regulations classify smokeless tobacco products as novel tobacco products and establish notification requirements and labeling and packaging restrictions for them.

Iowa Sets November 16 Vape Directory Launch: Unlisted Products Face Sales Ban, Manufacturers $1,000 Daily Fines per Product
Iowa plans to publish its first vapor products directory on November 16, 2026, after which products not listed will be prohibited from sale or offer for sale in the state. The Department of Revenue expects to begin penalty enforcement on December 17, following an initial 21-business-day period focused on compliance education. Under House File 2677, retailers, distributors and wholesalers selling unlisted products face civil penalties of $300 per product per day, while manufacturers face $1,000 per product per day. Eligibility extends to FDA-authorized products and certain products meeting historical marketing and pending PMTA requirements. The directory program resumed after a federal appeals court vacated a preliminary injunction in July 2026.

Product｜AIR Files U.S. PMTA for Crown Switch. Can Greentank's Chip Technology Deliver a Compliance and Competitive Advantage?
AIR Global PLC (NASDAQ: AIIR) announced on November 5, 2026, that it had submitted a Premarket Tobacco Product Application (PMTA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for Crown Switch, its rechargeable pod vape platform. First launched in Germany in November 2025, the device uses Quantum Chip atomization technology developed by Canadian vaporization technology company Greentank Innovations. German retail versions feature 2mL prefilled pods containing 18mg/mL nicotine in six flavors, while AIR has separately tested two 5% nicotine formulations intended for U.S. development. AIR invested $20 million in Greentank in July and reported approximately $3.4 million in U.S. PMTA-related regulatory costs for the first nine months of 2026. The Crown Switch application has been submitted, but the FDA has not granted marketing authorization.

Latest UK ONS Data: 54% of Vapers Are Former Cigarette Smokers, 26% Also Smoke and 20% Never Smoked Regularly
Former cigarette smokers accounted for an estimated 54% of current e-cigarette users in Great Britain in 2025, while 26% also smoked cigarettes and 20% had never regularly smoked, according to a 2Firsts analysis of Office for National Statistics (ONS) data. Among former cigarette smokers who currently vape, approximately 81% used e-cigarettes daily, compared with about 50% of dual users. The ONS found that 33.8% of current cigarette smokers also vaped in 2025, up from 10.6% in 2014. Approximately 1.1 million adults who had never regularly smoked cigarettes used e-cigarettes, representing 2.9% of that population, compared with 0.2% in 2014. The figures highlight differences in the composition, frequency of use and long-term trends across Britain's vaping population.

Special Report | Vape bans and tougher rules: the South Caucasus takes different paths
Azerbaijan's sweeping e-cigarette ban has raised concerns over enforcement errors and the emergence of illicit sales, while neighboring Armenia is tightening technical rules and preparing higher excise taxes. Georgia, meanwhile, has resisted calls for broader vape restrictions and introduced preferential taxes for some domestically produced cigarettes. The divergent approaches across the South Caucasus highlight a regional policy dilemma: how to curb nicotine use and protect public health without encouraging black markets or creating unintended economic consequences for businesses and consumers.

Sweden Finds ZYN Ingredient Labels Noncompliant Over Generic Flavoring Disclosure, Swedish Match Faces SEK 2 Million Monthly Penalty
Sweden's Public Health Agency has found ingredient labels on ZYN nicotine pouches sold by Philip Morris International subsidiary Swedish Match to be noncompliant, according to Dagens industri.

The agency ordered corrective action, warning of a conditional penalty of SEK 2 million per month for noncompliance. The order applies only to products manufactured after the decision becomes legally effective and does not require recalls. Swedish Match disputes the agency's interpretation and plans to appeal.
