The law and a decree require packaging of tobacco products and derivative products (e.g., e-cigarettes) to display text-only health warnings covering 65% of each principal display area. Four warnings are to appear in rotation simultaneously, with the set of warnings changing every 24 months. In addition, such packaging must contain two qualitative constituents and emissions statements on the sides of the packaging where the health warnings are not displayed. Health warnings must be in the principal languages of Togo.
The law aligns with FCTC Art. 11 and the FCTC Art. 11 Guidelines.
