HB 529 establishes criteria for alternative nicotine products to be included in a state directory, directly affecting manufacturers selling these products in Alabama. It requires products to have been on the U.S. market by April 14, 2022, and to have a premarket tobacco product application (PMTA) under FDA review. The bill also mandates that manufacturers submit documentation within 30 days if federal compliance requirements for e-liquids or other vapor products change. Failure to substantiate compliance with new federal standards can result in the manufacturer and their products being removed from the directory.
