After Sept. 9, 2020, the only vaping e-liquids and accessories will be lawfully allowed to sell their vaping products in the US market, which will get approved by the FDA authorities. So, those who have already received approval or have submitted their PMTA ( Pre-market tobacco application) for needed review and approval and waiting anxiously to know the status of their application now under vaping regulations are expected to be found in the market, if they get approval.

In a nutshell, none knows what is about to happen in the upcoming days. The scenario is truly perplexing both for businesses and consumers. It is, however, speculative that while some big vaping companies, manufacture, and retail enterprises will be dominating the market - sadly, for millions of family-owned vaping businesses and small businesses – the future survival is in dark.

What is PMTA?

The PMTA stands for premarket tobacco application, is an official document - that all businesses involved in vaping industry ranging from manufacturers of vaping liquids to accessories to retail counters and small entities are supposed to submit ...
... to the FDA to carry on marketing and selling their products, in future provided they get sanction.

Technically, if you had any vaping-related product (containing tobacco) in the market in February 2007, you will have to go through the process. Nonetheless, most people in the industry know that there was no existence of vaping products at that point on the US market while only its ancestors i.e. cigarettes should come under the rule. How according to the term of the FDA law, 99% of all vaping items will need to undergo this complex process. This also applies to those who import e-liquid for distribution as well as small vape stores that make e-liquid in their retail counters, if they intend to be in business. Equally, all vaping components and accessories that are sold separately are required to submit a different type of application.

We’ll discuss in more detail what kinds of information PMTA needs from you. Precisely, the whole intent of the application is to establish that your vaping product lineup is safe and suitable for public health.

The information you need to submit in FMTA vaping regulation system include:

Product samples with labels: The FDA requires you to provide samples of each product (irrespective of its flavors) as well as samples of labeling for product analysis and verification with the labeling to ensure it that are suitable for public health.
