Oral tobacco products fall under the scope of the tobacco regulations in Israel, and snus is permitted. Our interpretation of the law is that tobacco-free nicotine pouches are legal but outside the scope of the tobacco regulation, though we believe that it is only a matter of time before this changes.
This report provides a summary of the current regulatory framework in place for oral tobacco and nicotine pouches in Israel, covering all policy areas from taxation and advertising to labelling, notification and retail channels.
