Data sourced: more than 5 years ago. Page updated: 2022-09-02

In Macedonia, a new tobacco law introduces a separate category for heated tobacco products. On May 2nd 2019, the President signed a decree formalising the adoption of the new Law on Tobacco. The law introduces a separate category for heated tobacco products and e-cigarettes, and requires different health warnings for this category versus cigarettes. No health warnings are required on devices. “Smoking” is defined as use of a combustible tobacco product. Pre-market notification for heated tobacco products and pre-market approval for e-cigarettes will be required.
