Implementing traceability of tobacco products: Challenges and lessons learned

The Public Health Agency of Sweden has since 2018 implemented the regulations on traceability of tobacco products which are set out in the WHO FCTC, the Protocol, EU regulations, and national law. Since 2018 there have been many challenges for the Agency. This presentation will explain some of the challenges for example; access to the traceability system for national authorities, the role of different authorities, financing for supervision/enforcement, resources, and qualifications. The presentation will also explain the lessons learned and some conclusions by the Agency related to the challenges.
