由 lltx1822 Shipping E-cigarettes to Finland
Finland’s regulations for e-cigarettes are governed by the Tobacco Act and EU TPD, overseen by the Finnish Food Authority (Evira). Nicotine-containing e-cigarettes are legal but subject to strict controls, while non-nicotine devices must meet safety standards.
Key requirements: e-liquids with nicotine are capped at 20mg/ml, and tanks cannot exceed 2ml. Labels must be in Finnish or Swedish, with warnings like “Nikotiini on riippuvuutta aiheuttava aine” (Nicotine is an addictive substance). All products must have a unique identifier for traceability.
Transporting e-cigarettes to Finland requires compliance with CLP regulations for chemical labeling on e-liquids. Each bottle must list hazards (e.g., “Harmful if swallowed”) and ingredient concentrations. Lithium batteries must comply with IATA guidelines for air freight, with a maximum of 20 batteries per package.
Customs clearance needs include a commercial invoice with the importer’s Business ID, a packing list, and a certificate of compliance with TPD. Finland imposes a 24% VAT on e-cigarettes, plus a tobacco tax of €0.10 per ml of e-liquid containing nicotine. Evira may conduct post-import tests to verify nicotine levels, so retain batch test reports.
