Comparative analysis of the transposition of the European Directive in the different Member States
Despite a desire to harmonize the regulation of vaping at the level of the European Union, the transposition of the directive on tobacco products differs greatly from one Member State to another, depending on many parameters that are sometimes difficult to understand. identify. For vaping professionals active in several European countries, the “single market” therefore means, in concrete terms, “multiple markets”: to ensure correct application of the TPD, all countries must therefore be studied on a case-by-case basis. Does the British referendum approving the exit from the European Union further complicate the situation, while several member states have still not transposed the European text?
