Argentina: Bill Proposed to Regulate Vape Sales & Ads

Former deputy Ricardo López Murphy has introduced a bill in Argentina aiming to regulate the sale and use of vaping systems, challenging the current prohibition. The initiative seeks to repeal Resolution 3226/2011, which has banned the advertising and sale of these devices since 2011. It proposes that vaporizers and nicotine pouches be recognized as harm reduction alternatives to traditional tobacco.

The bill cites scientific evidence from institutions like the Royal College of Physicians and Cancer Research UK to support the efficacy of these products in reducing smoking-related risks. However, critics warn of potential addiction risks and negative impacts on public health policies. The proposal emerges amidst political and commercial controversy, with some tobacco industry sectors pushing for differentiated taxes to expand their markets.

This legislative push, which could facilitate the entry of these products into the national market under a regulatory framework, will be evaluated by parliamentary committees, including Health and Industry. It marks a significant moment in the debate over alternative nicotine products in Argentina.
