TPD & TRPR Compliance 🇬🇧
Vapour Central operates in full accordance with UK vaping regulations, including the Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) and the Tobacco and Related Products Regulations (TRPR). We are a compliant, responsible, independent vape retailer.
What is TPD?
The Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) is EU legislation that set safety standards for vape products. In the UK, these requirements continue under TRPR (Tobacco and Related Products Regulations).
Key TPD/TRPR rules include:
- Maximum nicotine strength of 20mg/ml
- Maximum e-liquid bottle size of 10ml (for nicotine-containing liquids)
- Maximum tank capacity of 2ml (for nicotine-containing devices)
- Mandatory health warnings and labelling
- Product notification to the MHRA before sale
Why it matters
Compliance protects consumers. It ensures vape products sold in the UK meet safety, quality and labelling standards.
We do not sell non-compliant products.
