TPD SUBMISSIONS
The MHRA (Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency) is the competent authority for e-cigarettes and refill containers in the UK. MHRA rules require all e-liquids that contain nicotine to be analysed and the results submitted for approval 6-months prior to sale in the UK. A list of banned ingredients and submissions can be found on the MHRA website.
As part of TPD (Tobacco Products Directive) compliance, Zeus offers testing for both e-liquids and the vapour produced during the vaping process to detect and quantify all substances of concern according to the MHRA guidelines.
PRODUCTS TESTED
All producers and manufacturers in the UK are legally required to notify their e-liquids to the MHRA for approval six months prior to sale by submitting the required documentation and information through the MHRA TPD submission portal.
Under the current rules a ‘Retailer’ sells e-cigarettes and/or e-liquids by retail to the general public but if a ‘Retailer’ sells relabelled products, the MHRA also defines you as a ‘Producer’. A ‘Producer’ must notify the MHRA about their products for approval prior to selling, but if the original manufacturer or producer of the relabelled products has already received approval, then the ‘Retailer’ does not need to repeat the process.
With assistance from our partner Arcus Compliance, we offer compliance services to ensure your products are ready for market, combining our industry experience, infrastructure and knowledge from Arcus Compliance.
