I think it's about £1200 per flavour IIRC, that's what I read on FlavourArt's site anyway.
Does that apply to just the flavour, though, or to any other component products they supply - Such as pre-made juices, nic solutions, PG/VG mixes, etc?
"A producer is anyone who manufactures or imports these products or who re-brands any product as their own"
"Emissions testing should be carried out
at least once
on each flavour and on each
combination of flavours."
The MHRA estimated that a single Market Approval (for one liquid or vaping device) would cost up to £350,000, which sounds pretty excessive...
"This led to a situation where an ECITA member company contacted the MHRA directly, and was told that they would require 900 MAs to cover their product range. Based on the MHRA cost estimates, this would cost £315,000,000 purely for MAs. This does not include the associated costs of GMP compliance, nor importing, wholesale, or pharmacovigilance fees, which would also add significant costs. It also takes no account of future costs, such as R&D into new products, which would also require significant expenditure"
I think they've toned that down a bit now, but still... !!!
