MANILA — The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) on Thursday said it would establish more facilities to enhance the agency's safety and certification process of vape products and related accessories.

The DTI said in a statement that the agency would secure additional funding in the National Expenditure Program to boost its testing capabilities, as existing testing centers could not cover heated tobacco products consumables, e-liquids for vapor products, and nicotine pouches due to "budgetary constraints."

The agency is establishing additional certification facilities as product registration and other related provisions of RA 11900 or the Vape Law will take effect by June 2024.

"All importation and manufacturing of vaporized nicotine and non-nicotine products and novel tobacco products shall be required to undergo the DTI mandatory certification process before market distribution," it said.
