🇬🇧 English

The CDC is asking for final public comments on a reporting requirement for companies that manufacture, import, or package smokeless tobacco in the United States. The form covers the ingredients added to these products and the amount of nicotine they contain. Affected companies should review the collection request and submit comments within 30 days if they believe the reporting burden, cost, clarity, or submission process should be changed. The notice does not create a new product ban or sales restriction; it is part of the approval process for government information collection.
