After 6 months from the notification on EU-CEG, the products enter the market anyway, regardless of whether the evaluation of the Monitoring Commission is completed or not.<\/p>\n<p>The same law specifies the ban on the split sale of \u201cingredients, including perfumes, intended for the internal production of refill liquids for electronic cigarettes.
