This product contains two individual regulatory reports:

Tunisia: oral tobacco and nicotine pouch regulation

Law No. 17/1998 (hereafter Tobacco Control Law) defines tobacco products as “products intended to be smoked, sniffed or chewed, as long as they consist, even partially, of tobacco”. This indicates that oral tobacco, including snus, must comply with the broader tobacco framework. Nicotine pouches are subject to general consumer rules.

This report provides a comprehensive overview of the current regulatory regime in place in Tunisia for oral tobacco and nicotine pouches.

Tunisia: heated tobacco regulation

Law No. 57/1964 established the Tobacco Authority and made it the exclusive state producer of tobacco products. In September 2021, the Tobacco Authority announced that heated tobacco is subject to a state monopoly. However, this could change in the near future.

This report offers a detailed analysis of the current regulatory framework in place for heated tobacco products in Tunisia, covering all policy areas from notification and packaging requirements to taxation and pricing.
