They often produce guides and resources to help their members stay on the correct side of the law in a market where regulations change frequently.

The newest guide they have produced is a “Guide to regulatory compliance” and you can download the PDF.

What Is Included In The Guide?

ukvia regulatory complianceThe guide covers topics such as:

  • Product Manufacturing – how to compile correct paperwork, manage systems and processes and getting certification.
  • Devices and accessories – states the applicable standards they must conform to.
  • Consumable ingredients and components – discusses e-liquid, nicotine purity and certification.
  • Product performance – this section relates to testing and meeting the TRPR (Tobacco and Related Products Regulations 2016).
  • New product launches – getting MHRA (Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency) approval.

Obviously there is a lot more detail to the document but it does help to bring together a lot of confusing regulations in an easy to understand way.

I am an engineer and Technical Author by trade. My journey in vaping began around 2016, in the days of Tornado tanks, Ego batteries and Variable Voltage. It took me a few years to fully quit smoking but I finally stopped in June 2019 and that is all thanks to vaping! 20mg Nicotine Salts are my hero! Oh and I am partial to a nice pod mod and Bubblegum e-liquid! I have reported on the latest news on Ecigclick since 2017 and love being part of this great team! My passion for Tobacco Harm Reduction has also led me to becoming a Trustee for the NNA (New Nicotine Alliance) aiding in Advocacy
