FDA adds suppliers to ingredients registration

In a new twist the FDA appears to have included vendors / materials of any component / raw materials to the cigarette or its packaging.

Previously it was thought only cigarette producers / importers had to provide an ingredients list to FDA by December 22.

Suppliers of papers, filters, packaging, aluminum foil, poly-wraps and tear tapes will all have to comply.

FDA is curently pilot testing an electronic web-site version to facilitate this registration.
