Według najnowszych danych z 21 lipca 2020 roku, szacunkowy odsetek użytkowników urządzeń do waporyzacji nikotyny (e-papierosów) w Albanii wynosi 3,04%, co stanowi wzrost w porównaniu do 2,60% odnotowanych w lipcu 2018 roku. Odpowiada temu wzrost liczby użytkowników w Albanii z 61 705 w 2018 roku do 72 206,14 w roku 2020, co świadczy o rosnącej akceptacji i użyciu tych urządzeń na przestrzeni dwóch lat. Pomimo tego wzrostu, w Albanii nie obowiązują żadne przepisy szczegółowo regulujące stosowanie urządzeń do waporyzacji nikotyny, co potwierdzają informacje z różnych źródeł dotyczących regulacji prawnych. Brak takich regulacji wskazuje na lukę w krajowych przepisach dotyczących kontroli i nadzoru nad e-papierosami.

The European Union (EU) Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) 2016 Changes to the EU TPD
- No Fire, No Smoke: The Global State of Tobacco Harm Reduction
The TPD is a Directive of the EU which means that all EU countries must ‘transpose’ or incorporate the TPD requirements into their national laws. The only flexibility permitted is the ability to enact additional regulations. The current Directive entered into force on 19th May 2014 and became applicable in the EU Member States on 20th May 2016.
In 2014 a revised Tobacco Products Directive known as TPD 2 was issued by the EU to update the 2001 Tobacco Products Directive. TPD2 regulates all tobacco products in the European Union and its scope is wide. It covers product regulation in terms of reporting obligations of ingredients and emissions for all tobacco products. It includes product packaging and labelling including the size and appearance of products, traceability features to be fixed onto packaging as well as health warnings. It covers cross-border advertising of tobacco products; it reinforces the ban on oral tobacco products (snus), but importantly it provides for the placing on the market of e-cigarettes and refill containers, as well as making provision for notification of novel tobacco products. It also provides for herbal cigarettes.
