State vapor directories change every month. Know the day a product you sell falls off.
VaporShelf watches official state vapor-product directories and alerts distributors, wholesalers, and retailers when a product they carry is removed — with dated evidence from the official source, plus warnings before recertification deadlines.
Louisiana removed 432 products in its November 2026 directory edition alone. If you sell into a directory state, your list is checked against every change — or it isn’t checked at all.
If it’s not on the directory, you can’t sell it
Thirteen states now allow only directory-listed vapor products to be sold — every one of them covered here. The directories are living lists: North Carolina and Louisiana publish updated editions monthly, and Wisconsin’s directory is updated nightly. Products don’t drift off one at a time — removals arrive in waves, usually right after a certification deadline passes.
Products removed in a single monthly edition, right after state certifications ended on October 31, 2026. 95% of the removals — 411 of 432 — were certification outcomes: manufacturers that didn’t recertify, or whose renewals were rejected.
SKUs removed in a single week (May 20–27, 2026), per the state’s official removed-products file — months of quiet, then one enforcement wave.
Products removed in one month when a statutory certification deadline hit — in a directory the state republishes every night.
Selling a product that has fallen off a state directory risks fines, suspension or revocation of your license, and seizure of the unlisted product. The sellers who get caught are usually the ones who checked the list once — months ago.
Your product list, checked every cycle
Send us the products you carry
Product names and SKUs only — the same information printed on the boxes. No customer data, no financial data, nothing sensitive.
We check it against every state you sell into
Your list is matched against the official directory of each state on that state’s own update cycle — monthly editions where states publish monthly, nightly where they publish nightly.
You hear about changes before they cost you
An alert with the edition and dates when a product you carry is removed or added — and a warning ahead of your states’ recertification deadlines, when removal waves happen.
What a directory change report looks like
This is a real report, built from Louisiana’s official November 2026 directory edition (published November 5, 2026) — not a mock-up. Full state reports like this one are the product.
The hardest-hit product line was Kumi Six, with 56 products removed; the hardest-hit manufacturer was Blue Nine LLC, with 60. The report lists every removed and added product by name, with the reason recorded for each removal.

Questions
Is this legal advice?
No. VaporShelf reports what official state directories publish — a product listed, removed, or added, with the edition and date. That is screening information, not a legal determination, and it is not legal advice. VaporShelf is not affiliated with any state agency.
Which states are covered?
All thirteen states that run vapor-product directories: Louisiana, North Carolina, Wisconsin, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Florida, California, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Utah.
What data do you need from me?
Only the names and SKUs of the products you carry — the information printed on the packaging. We do not need customer data, employee data, or financial information.
