This came up in a conversation today with a well known juice maker.
So, when does it begin?

SA Vaping Bill/Regulation - When does this come into effect?
Wouldn't bank on that given taxation kicks in February next year.

When do we not need it?
I use VG
You probably fart massive clouds?
On eliquid? Is that confirmed? What or how much are we looking at and what would duties be?
Tito did announce in his Feb budget speech that there will be some taxation on e-cigarettes from next year. How its going to work is still anybody's guess.
But a lot has changed in the world since then and any tax on vaping won't make much of a dent in the budget shortfall left by 2020. So I don't see it being a major priority. An increase in VAT will have a much bigger effect. Just my opinion.
It's very clear....
Taxation was implemented this year in February on heat generating products... So things like the "heat" and "IQOS" devices and Hooki are currently being taxed at 70% of the published taxable rate applied to tobacco products (cigarettes), so the same should apply to ecigarettes next year.
What is not clear, however, is exactly what will be taxed. Will it be eliquids only or will it be hardware to.
Taxation there will be next year as Tito made it clear in this budget speech this year that taxation on ecigarettes will apply from 2021.
With regard to the legislation. The proposed legislation was already published and debated in the later part of 2018 and is available on the government website for you to read..
Right now there is a strong push from lobby groups to get the new tobacco legislation bill passed. This bill is the legislation that groups ecigarettes and tobacco in the same group and includes all the regulations and restrictions around vaping.
I strongly suggest people read the new proposed bill as it will have some real consequences on the vaping industry as we know it

Yes I was just wondering when exactly...
I want to import +- 60 bottles 100/120ml before this happens as currently SA does not pay duties on eliquid.
