Scope
What it bears on.
The product categories this site tracks under this instrument, and the parameters of the shared vocabulary it touches. Nothing here is a statement about any one market — that is below, and it comes from that market's own record.
Product categories
-
Nicotine pouches
Oral, tobacco-free products containing synthetic or natural nicotine, presented as portioned sachets, powder, particles or paste.
-
Nicotine strips
Oral, tobacco-free nicotine products in strip or film form. Their classification is unsettled in several markets, which is why they are tracked separately from pouches rather than assumed to follow them.
-
E-liquids
Refill liquids for electronic cigarettes, with or without nicotine, including bases, flavour concentrates and DIY boosters where the market treats them the same way.
Parameters
- Chemicals legislation
In the markets we cover
The national provisions, not ours.
Every row below is a market's own requirement, with the act that imposes it in that market and a link to that act. A directive binds the member state, not the product; what binds a product is the national provision that transposes it.
Belgium
- Chemicals legislation E-liquids
- REACH and CLP apply in parallel; safety data sheet required; UFI code and poison-centre notification for mixtures classified as hazardous
Nicotine is classified as acutely toxic. REACH and CLP compliance does not legalise a product the national regime prohibits — the national prohibition takes precedence.
