Retailers could be fined for purchasing from an unregistered supplier.
A new campaign is warning of fines of between €500 and €2,000 for non-compliance with vape and e-cigarrette regulations for retailers.
Over 640 retailers in the midlands could be impacted by unknowingly purchasing vapes from an unregistered supplier.
WEEE are encouraging everyone to be cautious of importers not meeting their obligations and acting at an illegal competitive advantage.
Retailers are also being reminded to have facilities to take back vapes at the end of their use for recycling, such as with the Blue Battery Box system.
