## Details

- Record Type: WARNING_LETTER
- Company Name: Vanilla Vapes Limited
- Inspection Date: 2019-10-15
- Product Type: Tobacco
- Office Name: Center for Tobacco Products
- Summary: The FDA Center for Tobacco Products reviewed the website https://www.vanillavapes.co.uk and determined that e-liquid products advertised and sold to U.S. customers are tobacco products under section 201(rr) of the FD&C Act.

Violations include:
1.  **Sales to Minors:** The "50/50 Unflavoured e-liquid" was sold to a person younger than 18, violating 21 C.F.R. § 1140.14(b). This product is misbranded under section 903(a)(7)(B) of the FD&C Act.
2.  **Missing Nicotine Warning Statement:** Several e-liquid products (e.g., Chef’s Vapours Blue Slush, Oasis Black Grape, Vampire Vape Black Jack) advertised on the website lack the required warning: "WARNING: This product contains nicotine. Nicotine is an addictive chemical." This violates 21 C.F.R. § 1143.3(b) and renders the products misbranded under sections 903(a)(7)(B), 903(a)(1), and/or 903(a)(7)(A) of the FD&C Act due to false or misleading advertising/labeling.

The FDA requires immediate correction of these violations and similar issues.
