Volodin: The new vaping law may enter into force on January 1, 2027.
The chairman of the State Duma said that the bill requiring the manufacturers of vapors and tobacco products to disclose the ingredients will be considered in a second reading on November 11. An amendment was prepared for the second reading according to which the law could enter into force on January 1, 2027 - earlier than planned.
"Information about what vape and other tobacco products contain should be open, not disguised as a trade secret," Volodin noted.
He emphasized that tobacco, vapor and electronic cigarettes contain tar, metals, other chemicals and toxic compounds. Their entry into the body can lead to serious diseases. Thus, over the past year, doctors recorded a 30% increase in the number of patients with damage to the respiratory system.
