Regulatory report: Qatar, December 2020

Written by || 23rd December 2020 || Country regulatory reports , Regulatory reports | Marketing and Retailing | Policy and Politics | Regulation and Legislation | Tax | GeographiesAsia Qatar

Vaping products are currently completely banned in Qatar and ECigIntelligence does not expect any changes in the regulations any time soon. Nevertheless, should Qatar decide to regulate and legalise e-cigarettes we believe that there are two possible scenarios. Qatar could adopt similar regulations to the neighbouring countries of the Arabic peninsula; or alternatively, wait until the approval of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Standardisation Organisation (GSO) standard on vaping products – which would introduce common restrictions for all GCC countries – and adopt it.

This report will explore the possible regulatory framework should Qatar decide to follow its fellow GCC countries and legalise e-cigarettes.
