Notice Regarding VODO BAR’s Response to New U.S. E-Cigarette Regulations
June 12, 2024
Dear Valued Customers and Partners,
We are writing to inform you about recent developments in the U.S. e-cigarette market and how they might impact our operations and your orders. On June 10, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced the formation of a federal multi-agency task force aimed at combating the illegal distribution and sale of e-cigarettes.
Overview of the Task Force Initiative
This task force, led by the DOJ and FDA, includes several enforcement agencies such as the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF), the U.S. Marshals Service (USMS), the U.S. Postal Inspection Service (USPIS), and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). The group will use all available criminal and civil tools to address illegal e-cigarette distribution and sales. The focus will be on investigating and prosecuting criminal, civil, seizure, and forfeiture actions under laws such as the Prevent All Cigarette Trafficking (PACT) Act and the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.
Implications for E-Cigarette Shipments
As part of the task force’s activities, the U.S. Marshals Service will assist the FDA and DOJ in seizing unauthorized e-cigarettes within the United States. This effort is expected to result in stricter scrutiny of e-cigarette shipments entering the country, leading to potential delays as products undergo rigorous inspections to ensure compliance with U.S. regulations.
VODO BAR’s Commitment to Compliance
We want to assure our customers and partners that VODO BAR products are fully compliant with U.S. laws and regulations. All our e-cigarettes, including our new detachable battery devices, adhere to the stringent standards set forth by the FDA. Our commitment to legal compliance means that VODO BAR products are authorized and safe for marketing and sales in the U.S. market.
Impact on Logistics and Apology for Delays
Due to the increased inspections and regulatory enforcement, shipments of all e-cigarette products, including those from VODO BAR, are likely to experience delays. This thorough inspection process, while beneficial in curbing illegal activities, may affect our usual delivery timelines.
We deeply regret any inconvenience these delays may cause and appreciate your understanding and patience during this period. We are working diligently with our logistics partners to minimize disruptions and ensure that your orders are processed as swiftly as possible.
Positive Outlook
While the heightened regulatory measures pose challenges, they also present a significant advantage for VODO BAR. The rigorous enforcement against illegal e-cigarettes means that compliant products like ours will gain a stronger foothold in the market. This initiative reaffirms our commitment to providing safe, high-quality vaping solutions to our customers.
Stay Informed
We will continue to keep you updated on any further developments and their impact on our operations. For more information about VODO BAR’s products and compliance standards, please visit VODO BAR’s official website or contact us at zenghualong@magicmateltd.com.
