TPD/GCC and Accreditation

TPD is Directive 2014/40/EU rules set for tobacco and other related products in the EU. This includes vapour products not licensed as medicines.
The TPD is required by the European Parliament and came into force for e-cigarettes since the 20th May 2016.

What is GCC?
GCC – General Certificate of Conformity is distributed to certify that the finished product (i.e., the filled and sealed e-liquid bottle sold to consumers) is CNPPA compliant.
What is CNPPA?
CNPPA – the Children’s Nicotine Poisoning Prevention Act, came into effect on July 2016, which requires US domestic manufacturers of nicotine-containing e-liquids. Moreover, it also complies with the child-resistant packaging and testing requirements set forth in the Poison Packaging Prevention Act of 1970 (PPPA), Pub. L. 91-601, 84 Stat. 1,670 (Dec. 30, 1970).
This applies to:
Bottles of nicotine-containing e-liquid sold directly to consumers for use in refillable “open-system” vaping devices.
Requirements
– US domestic manufacturer/importer of the finished e-liquid product shall provide test data and/or certificates to certify that the finished product (i.e., the filled and sealed e-liquid bottle sold to consumers) are CNPPA compliant.
– Under the CPSA, if the manufacturer is located outside the U.S., the importer stands in the shoes of the manufacturer, CPSA § 3(a)(11).
How to comply with CNPPA?
The Manufacturer/Importer of the finished e-liquid product shall create a GCC which must be “furnished” to each e-liquid distributor and retailer. Next, sending a paper copy of the GCC with each product shipment or providing distributors and retailers a unique electronic certificate identifier. So then it allows them (as well as the CPSC) to access the GCC over the internet.
