Electronic cigarettes and refill containers.

Order on a registration system for the manufacture, storage and placing on the market of electronic cigarettes and refill containers with or without nicotine

On 11 November 2021, the Danish Parliament presented the legislative proposal amending the Danish Health Act, the Electronic cigarettes, etc. Act and the Tobacco Products, etc. Act.

The legislative proposal amends the fee schedules for products covered by the Electronic cigarettes, etc. Act and the Tobacco Products, etc. Act.
The legislative proposal contains a number of provisions enabling the Minister for Industry, Business and Financial Affairs to lay down detailed rules. The amending Order lays down a requirement that a person who places electronic cigarettes or refill containers on the market with or without nicotine must pay a fee per place of marketing.
The amending Order contains rules on fees for registration of the place of marketing and annual maintenance.
The amending Order also states that if there is no annual maintenance, the place of marketing will no longer appear on the public register of dealers. In addition, the amending Order contains rules on the amount of the fees being set on the Danish Safety Technology Authority’s website as well as information on when and how fees are due. Finally, the amending Order also provides for an exemption from the payment of fees in the case of a temporary place of marketing.
