3 Signs of Illegal Vape Devices, Webcast Reveals

Bidi Vapor officials discuss what’s legal, what’s not regarding FDA rules

MELBOURNE, Florida – A new webcast, sponsored by Bidi Vapor, LLC, outlines what the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers noncompliant electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) and high-priorities for agency enforcement.

Here are the top three telltale signs of noncompliance:

  1. Synthetic nicotine. Products containing nicotine derived from synthetic methods are not legal to sell as of July 2022, according to FDA rules. Compliant devices use nicotine derived from tobacco.
  2. No Premarket Tobacco Product Application (PMTA). Products without properly filed and accepted PMTAs are noncompliant and high-priority targets for FDA enforcement.
  3. Marketing denial order (MDO). Products with legally standing MDOs are noncompliant and high-priority targets for FDA enforcement.

Vaping devices that advertise high puff counts, tout kid-friendly flavor names or are called out in FDA warning letters fall outside of the FDA’s compliance parameters and are not legal to sell, webcast panelists said.

In the webcast, officials with the Melbourne, Fla.-based vape manufacturer also note how the FDA recently issued warning letters to retailers—over half of them convenience-store operators–flagged for selling noncompliant products. Additionally, the FDA recently enlisted the U.S. Customs and Border Protection to help it stop noncompliant product from entering the country.

The webcast panel elaborated on the status of Bidi Vapor’s PMTAs for both its “Classic” tobacco-flavored device and its 10 other flavored varieties, saying that while it received MDOs for their flavors, a court ruling in August of 2022 set them aside. “Currently, Bidi Vapor can legitimately sell its flavored products as the FDA continues its scientific review, subject to the agency’s enforcement discretion,” said Azim Chowdhury, partner with the Washington, D.C.-based Keller and Heckman LLP.

Meanwhile, Bidi Vapor officials are inviting c-store retailers at the 2023 NACS Show in Atlanta, Oct. 3-6, 2023, to visit them in Booth No. C8874.
