Malaysian nicotine-free e-cigarette

Policy is always one step behind the market, and so is e-cigarettes. The origin of e-cigarettes has been more than 50 years, and the market has been widely sold for more than 20 years, but the corresponding policies for e-cigarettes have only appeared in the past two years, and this time, Malaysia's policy is aimed at nicotine e-cigarette oil in e-cigarettes. 

We know that smoking nicotine-free electronic smoke oil does not produce dependence similar to that of cigarettes. Therefore, nicotine-free electronic smoke oil is not a tobacco product and can be sold in many countries. 

Although nicotine-free e-cigarette oil can be sold in many places, the legitimacy and policy of this kind of thing has not been introduced for a long time, that is to say, the e-cigarette market was chaotic before, although it can be sold. But its sales are not supported by policy. e liquid flavors concentrate

The arrival of the e-cigarette policy also marks that the e-cigarette market has entered a mature period, e-cigarette manufacturers in the production of e-cigarette products when there is a policy to rely on. 

On 12 December 2016, the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Ministry of Internal Trade of Malaysia and practitioners of the e-cigarette industry gathered in the Conference Room of the Ministry of Internal Trade of Malaysia to hold a meeting on e-cigarettes. The content is to formulate Malaysian domestic trade cooperation and nicotine-free e-cigarette industry standards, directly related to the production, import and export sales and retail of e-cigarettes. 

The Director of domestic Trade, Cooperation and consumption of Malaysia said that all nicotine e-cigarette industry standards had come into effect in April to regulate all production and sales of nicotine-free e-cigarettes. e liquid flavors concentrate

"in order to monitor whether the product meets safety standards, the manufacturer needs to send the sample to the Malaysian Bureau of Standards for inspection and certification before the product can be put on the market." This is also in view of the current chaos in the e-cigarette market, breaking the previous rules for manufacturers to add formula to the e-cigarette oil at will. Not now, because each product must be inspected before you are allowed to sell. 

In addition, before sending the product for inspection, the enterprise producing the product should obtain the certificate and safety mark at SIRIM QAS International Sdn Bhd, and then send the product trademark to the Ministry of domestic Trade, Cooperation and consumption in order to simplify the registration and monitoring of the product. 

If you just look at the process, you may find it cumbersome, but it is really good for e-cigarette oil manufacturers. In the past, because there was no corresponding policy, e-cigarette oil was banned in many places, which is fatal to manufacturers. They were confused about the future of the market. Although more cumbersome than before, but with the policy as a support, manufacturers as long as in accordance with the regulations on it. e liquid flavors concentrate

In other words, in Malaysia, you can rest assured that you can operate e-cigarettes without fear of being banned simply, rudely and pointlessly by the government. At the same time, it also means that there is a threshold for operating e-cigarettes in Malaysia, which is no longer something you can do if you want to do it before!
