Tobacco Free Nicotine Pouches Compliance in UAE

Ensure compliance and accelerate market access for tobacco free nicotine pouches in the UAE.

In this free one-hour webinar, IMQ Gulf experts walk you through the UAE regulations and standards, the product testing requirements, the chemical safety and nicotine content limits, and the labelling, marking and packaging rules you need to meet – so you can support a smooth market entry and reduce rejection risks.

Tobacco free nicotine pouches are a fast-growing product category in the Gulf region. The UAE has defined specific requirements for these products, including the UAE.S 5061 – 2025 standard covering labelling, marking and packaging.

Manufacturers, importers and distributors must demonstrate compliance before placing products on the market: incomplete testing, non-conforming nicotine content or incorrect labelling are among the most common causes of rejection at customs and during conformity assessment.
