The Ministry of Health proposes to ban the sale of flavored nicotine products and disposable electronic cigarettes from January 2026.[1][2] The ban should mainly concern fruit, cola and candy flavors, which are attractive to minors.[1] Menthol, peppermint and tobacco flavors are proposed to be exempt from the ban because of their relevance to adults trying to quit smoking.[1][2] Disposable e-cigarettes are popular among the younger generation and cause a large environmental burden due to production and consumption.[1][2] The packaging of these products often increases their attractiveness for children by means of drawings, stickers or descriptions reminiscent of food, cosmetics or toys.[2] The Ministry also proposes a ban on economic benefits during sales, such as discounts or rewards in the form of alcoholic beverages.[2] These measures continue to tighten the regulation of tobacco and nicotine products.[1][2]
