FDA will use the information to
determine whether an exporter has complied with the export
requirements in the FFDC Act and the PHS Act and, in situations
where FDA is required by law to notify an appropriate health
official in a foreign country, to determine where a product was
exported so that the agency can provide notice to the foreign
country.
The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) issued a final rule to deem products meeting
the statutory definition of “tobacco product” to be subject to the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act). The FD&C
Act provides FDA authority to regulate cigarettes, cigarette
tobacco, roll-your-own tobacco, smokeless tobacco, and any other
tobacco products that the Agency by regulation deems to be subject
to the law. This final rule extends the Agency’s “tobacco product”
authorities to all other categories of products that meet the
statutory definition of “tobacco product” in the FD&C Act,
except accessories of such newly deemed tobacco products.
