Poland to ban flavoured Heated Tobacco Products
Poland is close to passing a Bill that would ban flavored Heated Tobacco Products. The Senate Health Committee approved the regulation, which prohibits HTPs with non-tobacco flavors and mandates health warnings on packaging. The aim is to make these products less attractive and restrict access. Poland must align with the EU directive aimed at reducing the appeal of these products to children. The legislation, once passed, will have a nine-month transition period for businesses to comply. Additionally, Poland is considering other tobacco and vape regulations, including restricting the sale and use of vapes to minors and increasing taxes on e-liquids incrementally until 2027.
27.00% of the adult population are current smokers. There are approximately 8.5 million current smokers in Poland 27.60% of men are current smokers but only 19.10% of women.
