Bangladesh, unlike e-cigarette vaping products, has favourable regulations regarding snus, permitting its sale, online purchase, and use. There are no restrictions on its flavour ranges. However, some restrictions remain in place: health claims on the product are not allowed, but health warnings on packaging are required. There are no excise taxes levied on the product.
