EU TPD registration certification

Product Specification

EU TPD registration certification
TPD Overview
The Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) is a regulation used to regulate and supervise product manufacturing, sales, display (product design, packaging, etc.) and all tobacco and tobacco-related products (such as e-cigarette products). The Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) is ostensibly designed to allow tobacco products to operate more smoothly in the international market. In fact, many of the provisions of the TPD are designed to reduce the attractiveness of tobacco products and achieve higher standards of protection for human health. The EU Tobacco Directive TPD (2014/40/EC) came into effect in May 2014, and the 2-year transition period has ended. E-cigarette products exported to the EU market must comply with the requirements of the TPD Directive, otherwise they will be banned, fined or returned, which will cause huge losses to e-cigarette manufacturers.
