Registration process
Czech Republic vape product registration
The Czech Republic follows the EU Tobacco Products Directive (2014/40/EU) for notifying e-cigarettes, refill containers, and nicotine-containing products. The process requires submission via EU-CEG and includes a 6-month notification period before products can be legally placed on the market.
Step 1: Prepare the Submission
Using TPD PRO, prepare your full product dossier in EU-CEG-compliant XML format:
Submitter and Manufacturer details
100% Compositions with full toxicological and emissions data
Presentations targeted to the Czech market
Upload necessary documents: packaging, leaflet, emission tests, etc.
Export validated XML files
Step 2: Submit via eTrustEx
Log in to eTrustEx and upload the files in order:
Submitter XML
Attachments (PDFs)
Submission XML
Each file must be confirmed with a Success response to proceed.
Step 3: 6-Month Notification Period
As required by EU law, the Czech Republic enforces a 6-month waiting period after submission. Products may not be placed on the market before this period expires.
Step 4: Public Listing
After successful validation and completion of the waiting period, approved products are listed on the official website of the Czech Ministry of Health:
This confirms regulatory approval for sale within the Czech market.
